About this product

Opulent. Intense. A timeless Italian masterpiece.
From the sun-kissed vineyards of Valpolicella, Montindon Amarone della Valpolicella is a wine that exemplifies the richness, depth, and elegance of northern Italy’s most iconic red. Made from carefully selected Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara grapes, the Amarone is crafted using the traditional appassimento method, where grapes are partially dried to concentrate sugars, aromas, and flavour. The result is a wine of intensity, complexity, and unforgettable character.

In the glass, it shows a deep garnet red with ruby reflections, revealing a bouquet of ripe black cherries, plums, dried figs, cocoa, and subtle spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied and velvety, with firm yet elegant tannins, balanced acidity, and a lingering finish that showcases layers of dark fruit, chocolate, and Mediterranean herbs. Each sip is a journey through the hills of Valpolicella, capturing the passion and meticulous care of Montindon’s winemaking.

For Irish wine enthusiasts, Montindon Amarone is perfect with braised meats, game, aged cheeses, or special celebratory meals, offering a luxurious taste of northern Italian craftsmanship and heritage. Its depth, richness, and character make it a wine to savour slowly, whether for festive dinners or quiet moments of indulgence.

Why we love it:
This is Amarone done right — bold but refined, complex yet smooth. Montindon delivers exceptional quality with a personal touch, making this a standout for collectors and casual enthusiasts alike. A wine that lingers long after the last sip.
