Variety of Middle Eastern origin which is best expressed in Sicily thanks to the intense luminosity and uniqueness of the soils. It is a medium-late variety, ripening around the end of September. The grapes are grown both in Sambuca di Sicilia, in the province of Agrigento, and in Acate, in the province of Ragusa. In the first estate, a more mature and structured wine is obtained, while in the second, a more delicate and fruity product is obtained. The type of training used is espalier, with an average planting density of 4,500 plants per hectare. Harvesting of the grapes at perfect phenolic ripeness, destemming and alcoholic fermentation with the skins for 10-12 days at 25-26°C, malolactic fermentation with selected bacteria, maturation for 10 months in French oak barriques.
Amarone, the flagship product of the Righetti company, is obtained with the ancient method of drying. From October to March the best bunches of the Corvina, Molinara and Rondinella varieties are placed to dry in special rooms, where the right level of humidity and ventilation allow optimal dehydration of the grapes. After the pressing of the grapes and fermentation, the wine is left to age for three years in oak barrels and barriques. The refinement then continues in the bottle for about 12 months.
