Wine Spectator Awards for Lugana and Amarone from Zenato: 

95 hectares of top vineyards in Lugana and Valpolicella’s “classic zone.” Two faces: One white, the other red, both emblems of high-quality wines that are born through a passion for the land, respect for time, a family tradition that has championed local grape varieties for over 60 years.

The Soul of Lugana …….

Winespectator Awards for Lugana and Amarone

Zenato’s Lugana DOC Riserva Sergio Zenato 2020 got 92 points from the Wine Spectator.

 

Tastingnote:

“A toasty white, with a rich range of pear tart, quince paste, toasted almond and lemon meringue flavors, which are well-defined and enlivened by sleek acidity and salty minerality. Medium- to full-bodied, with a long, mouthwatering finish. Drink now through 2028.”

Wine Spectator Awards for Lugana and Amarone from Zenato: 

LUGANA: 

The Lugana Riserva is the fruit of Zenato’s family genuine passion and a reflection of their history in the appellation. The wine has a light brilliant gold in colour, and delives intense multi-faceted aromas on the nose, with floral and citrus notes, spices, white plum and vanilla.  An ideal white wine for aging.

The heart of Valpolicella…….

Winespectator Award for Lugana and Amarone from Zenato

Zenato’s Amarone Classico DOCG 2018 got 92 points from the Wine Spectator.

Tastingnote:

“A harmonious version, round and medium-to full-bodied, with fine tannins enmeshed with a fragrant mix of steeped cherry and strawberry, tea rose and tea leaf, mineral and spice flavors. Juicy finish. Corvina, Rondinella, Oseleta and Croatina. Drink now through 2028.”

Wine Spectator Awards for Lugana and Amarone from Zenato: 

AMARONE: 

The Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOCG is the jewel of Zenato’s wine production, made from a selection of Top Grapes from Valpolicella Classica grown in the township Sant’Ambrogio.

The grapes (Corvina, Rondinella, Oseleta and Croatina) are dried for 4 months and crushing is not carried out until January. Slow fermentation with skin contact follows and then the wine is aged for 36 months in large-format Slavonian casks. It is aged then in the bottle before being released. The Amarone is a majestic wine, ethereal and intense with notes of distillate -cured cherries and notes of bay leaf.  It is an ideal wine for long-term aging.
