Flavor Profile
Northern Italy’s village of Valpolicella is famed for its iconic, opulent Amarone. But in local cafes and family tables, you’re more likely to find fresh, perfumed wines fill of vibrant flavors. Enter Bartolomeo Lorenzi Rosso Veronese—young, juicy and bursting with red fruits and spice.
It’s crafted by Daniele Accordini, a hugely talented, well-respected oenologist in the region. He's the head winemaker at Cantina Valpolicella Negrar, the very first winery to bottle and label a wine under the Amarone name, back in 1933. Today, they have an excellent reputation for producing world-class wines. In fact, they were awarded the title of Best Italian Cooperative Winery three times (in 2016, 2017 and 2019) by Weinwirtschaft, the leading wine trade magazine in Germany.
This authentic local red is crafted from the same grape varieties that go into Amarone (Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella), but it's made in a fresher, juicier style. These grapes come from the cool Marano Valley, where grapes take longer to ripen, which adds depth, character and freshness to the wines.
Look forward to aromas of red cherry, red berries, cocoa and sweet spices. The palate is soft, ripe and smooth, but also has a welcome streak of acidity that keeps things balanced. Fruit-driven with gentle tannins, it offers flavors of juicy cherry and ripe plum and a long, fresh finish.
Top tip: Try it slightly chilled, like the locals do. And as our expert Leonardo says, “This wine shows much more complexity that you'd expect at this price point… it has such great balance.”
