{"product_id":"recioto-della-valpolicella-amarone-scamperle-1976","title":"Valpolicella Classico F.lli Scamperle 1976","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis 1976 red wine, bottled at 14.5% alcohol by volume, is produced by F.lli Scamperle in the Veneto region of northeastern Italy. While the general product name notes Valpolicella Classico, the original label specifies it as a Recioto della Valpolicella Amarone, holding a Denominazione di Origine Controllata Classico classification. The producer describes this style as the king of Veronese wines, noting that it is traditionally paired with roasts, game, and aged cheeses, or enjoyed as a standalone experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe wine originates from Valpolicella, a classic wine area located north of Verona. This area forms the foundation for several renowned wine styles, including standard Valpolicella, Ripasso, Amarone, and Recioto. Veneto itself is one of Italy's most productive wine regions, stretching from the Alps to the Adriatic Sea. The region's signature is Amarone, a powerful red wine crafted from dried grapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe blend consists of Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara, which are the traditional varieties of the area. Corvina is the central grape in Valpolicella, while Rondinella is a native Venetian variety frequently used in these regional blends. Molinara, a blue grape originating in Veneto, derives its name from the Italian word for mill, 'mulino', due to a thick, white wax layer on the berries that resembles a dusting of flour. Historically, Molinara has been a supporting grape in Amarone and Recioto production. Its natural resistance to fungal diseases makes it particularly well-suited for the appassimento method, where the grapes are dried. Although modern regulations no longer mandate its inclusion and its overall plantings have decreased, traditional wine houses continue to utilize Molinara in their classic blends.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"F.lli Scamperle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57232757489990,"sku":null,"price":3150.0,"currency_code":"SEK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/3478\/1950\/files\/generated-865_f608f2cc-14b8-4cf8-845f-a207053e6fc9.jpg?v=1788182765","url":"https:\/\/bottleswithhistory.se\/en\/products\/recioto-della-valpolicella-amarone-scamperle-1976","provider":"Bottles With History","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
