Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Dark red hue in appearance. Concentrated, fragrant nose with top notes of cherry jam and cranberries, followed by hints of plum, dried fruit and cocoa.

On the palate it is full, round, with velvety tannins, pleasantly tangy with a long finish, with notes of red berries and an alluring full flavor.

Professional Ratings

91 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The Santi 2016 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Santico is an accessible expression of 80% Corvina and 20% Rondinella from a balanced and elegant vintage. The wine delivers the basics and doesn't venture far beyond. It offers a pretty assembly of dark fruit, spice, tar and campfire ash. Fruit is sourced from some of Santi's historic growing sites in San Pietro in Cariano, Fumane and Marano between 150 and 300 meters in elevation.

Santi traces its origins to 1843, when Carlo Santi established a wine cellar in Illasi, near Verona and Lake Garda. The original winery, very attractively renovated, still houses the winemaking facilities and aging cellar and stands on the plain below Castello d'Illasi, a ruined medieval fortress. Santi specializes in Veneto and Trentino wines. In addition to experimenting with the benefits of aging in new French oak barrels (barriques) for wines such as their single vineyard Trentino Chardonnay I Piovi, Santi emphasizes new techniques to improve the quality of their wines.
