From: Verona, Veneto, Italy
Varietal: Corvina
Tasting Notes: It's always a pleasure to taste the Corvina grape in its pure state. The Cesari 2015 Corvina Jèma gives us that opportunity. The wine is simple and easily layered with dark fruit, spice and sweet mesquite. There are some nutty aromas as well with roasted chestnut and almond. -Wine Advocate
Pairing: This mid-weight wine could pair with a spicy sausage and broccoli pizza.
Cesari was founded in 1936 by Gerardo Cesari who set out to produce an Amarone capable of competing with the great red wines of the world. Joined by his son Franco in the early 1960s, operations were expanded in an effort to conquer the export market. As one of the first Italian wines to be exported to all five continents, the Cesari name quickly became synonymous with Amarone the world around.
