Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Punta di Villa

It is Mazzi’s historic Amarone. ‘Punta di Villa’ takes the name from the pointed shape of the vineyard (Punta), which most of the grapes come from. It is the representation of a different Amarone, elegant but direct, which summarizes the philosophy of an Amarone up-to-date, in a constant evolution, despite the desire and the need to remain anchored to the origins, thanks to the distinctive and unique traits that characterize it on a global level. The area itself where the vineyard is located is a clear example of this concept of "remaining anchored to the past, while looking at the future". The name 'Villa' is a location in Negrar and is an important archaeological site of this Roman Villa, which gave the name to the entire area and is known worldwide thanks to its splendid mosaics discovered time ago.
