Villa Erbice Amarone della Valpolicella 2016

It was back in 1870 when grandpa Narciso Erbice began to make wines in a historical Venetian villa which dates back to the 17th century. Brothers Silvio and Alberto Erbice are the current custodians of the family vineyards and winery.

The Tremenel Amarone is make from the family vineyard using traditional sustainable farming, furthermore all the steps in the production of the wine is carried out by hand. Silvio is passionate about minimum intervention in the vineyard where only natural products are used, he strongly believes that artificial input disrupts the natural balance of the plants, the quality of the fruit and ultimately the finesse of the wine. Villa Erbice wines embody the spirit of the region and Silvio’s and Alberto’s passion and personalities.

wine tasting notes

Tremenel has an earthy fragrance of tobacco and ripe black fruit with a whiff of spice. The palate delivers black cherry layered with raisin, white pepper, nutmeg and cocoa backed up by bracing but refined tannins. This Amarone has a vigorous body that is at the same time soft, warm, full and smooth.
