The 2018 (1,500) Cavolo AMARONE VALPOLICELLA Etui by BRIGALDARA is a dry red DOCG wine from the Veneto region of Italy. This Amarone originates from the Cavolo vineyards in Grezzana, covering an area of 5 hectares and a density of 4,000-5,000 vines per hectare. The manual harvest, carried out in the second half of October, allows for a careful selection of the grapes, which undergo a traditional drying process in boxes placed in a drying room, to enhance the complexity and structure of the wine.
