To obtain the maximum expression and complexity, the drying continues until the optimal parameters are reached, after that date the traditional fermentation in red is carried out with a mixed technique of remounting and delastage. The fermentation period due to the low temperature of the cellar in the period and the high concentrations of fermentable sugars lasts a long time and at the end of which after a few days of maceration on the skins is passed to svina and to the placing in small barrels. The wine is subjected to aging continues for about 1 year in small wood and then passes to a blend in large cask. The exceptionally low pH, for a wine of this structure, gives Amarone Torre d'Orti a deep and bright color and an extraordinary drinkability. Despite alcohol, structure and fine tannins make this wine complex and balanced with a remarkable aging capacity and great evolutionary potential.
