Salvaterra, founded in 2014, has become a top name in Venetian wines, offering exceptional quality at a great price. This 60% Corvina, 25% Corvinone, 15% Rondinella blend is aged for 24 months in oak barrels for added complexity and flavor. Critic James Suckling gave the 2019 vintage 91 points, noting juicy plum and cherry flavors with hints of chocolate and leather. This light and elegant Amarone pairs well with aged cheese, red meats, and dark chocolate.
