{"product_id":"amarone-montresor-1975","title":"Amarone Recioto della Valpolicella Giacomo Montresor 1975","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis 1975 Amarone Recioto della Valpolicella was produced by Cantine Giacomo Montresor, an estate founded in 1906 and based in Verona, Italy. The wine originates from Veneto in northeastern Italy, a highly productive region stretching from the Alps to the Adriatic Sea, known for its world-famous wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe wine is classified under the Denominazione di Origine Controllata and comes from the Recioto della Valpolicella area, located north of Verona. This specific appellation is recognized for having one of Italy's oldest sweet wine traditions, with roots dating back to the Rhaetic wines of the Roman era. Recioto is historically regarded as the original ancestor of both modern Amarone and standard Valpolicella.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe blend is primarily based on the local Corvina and Corvinone grapes, which constitute 45 to 95 percent of the wine, supported by 5 to 30 percent Rondinella and small amounts of other regional varieties like Molinara and Oseleta. The wine is crafted using the traditional appassimento method, where the grapes are dried for 100 to 160 days on bamboo frames or in a specialized drying room called a fruttaio. This extensive drying process concentrates the natural sugars before fermentation, which is eventually stopped to retain a significant level of residual sugar in the finished wine.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cantine Giacomo Montresor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57404127215942,"sku":null,"price":270.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/3478\/1950\/files\/generated-1281_988a3cbd-b82f-4449-928b-fcd0ddb5c764.jpg?v=1789732385","url":"https:\/\/bottleswithhistory.nl\/en\/products\/amarone-montresor-1975","provider":"Bottles With History","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
