It’s a delicious red wine that’s a joy to sip and a perfect match for rich pastas, steaks, roasted meats, and aged cheeses.The first cellar dates back to 1883 and was built at Soave, a medieval town south-east of Verona, by Abele Bolla, proprietor of the renowned inn, \"Al Gambero\", famous everywhere for offering the finest wines from the area. Aware of the high quality of his wines Abele decided to market the wine \"Soave\" that his guests appreciated so highly and transformed his passion for vine-growing into a real business: the first Bolla Cellar was established in Soave in 1883. The company obtained its first official recognition in 1909 when Bolla obtained the gold medal (which would be followed by many more) for quality wines at the Bologna fair.\u003cp\u003eAs the century advanced, the time came for Abele's grandchildren, Sergio and Giorgio, to join their fathers in the front line. The Bolla name soon became renowned across the ocean too. In 1946 Ercole Sozzi, proprietor of the \"Fontana Hollywood\", one of New York's most famous restaurants, visited the Bolla cellars and made a large order (200 cases of Bardolino, vintage 1943) which accelerated the introduction of Bolla wines into the American market in 1947. In 13 April 1953, on the occasion of Alberto Bolla's eightieth birthday, his family organized a special party at the Hotel Cavalieri in Milan: children and grandchildren surprised their grandfather by bottling his preferred wine with a special label: Amarone Bolla Riserva del Nonno, vintage 1950. Amarone's great fortune sprang right from this propitious idea as the Bolla brothers were the first to market this wine. In the meantime the number of admirers of Bolla wines continued to grow. In 1959 Frank Sinatra refused to take a seat at table without Soave Bolla.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn April 1996, the Bolla Quality System received UNI EN ISO 29002 Certification from the prestigious Norwegian firm Det Norske Veritas (and in 2001 the Agribusiness Supply Chain Traceability Certificate). Bolla was one of the first Italian Cellars to obtain this recognition. It expansion abroad was gradually reinforced with the passage of the years as it received important official awards. In 1997, Rudolph W. Giuliani, mayor of New York, organized an event to celebrate 50 years of the presence of the Bolla brand in the United States market.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bolla","offers":[{"title":"1 \/ 1.50L \/ Red","offer_id":41175142348,"sku":"1207131-1","price":20.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1780\/9427\/products\/bolla-chianti-bolla.jpg?v=1590248149"},{"product_id":"bolla-soave-classico","title":"Bolla Soave Classico","description":"Production Area: Hills of the Soave DOC zone, Italy.Grape Varieties: 95% Garganega, 5% Trebbiano di Soave.Description: Pale yellow in color with greenish hues,Bolla Soave has aromas of melon, ripe apple,and pear. † e small amount of Trebbianodi Soave grapes adds body and complexity.† e fi nish is crisp and balanced.Hand-harvested grapes are crushed and gently pressed.Fermentation takes place at controlled temperatures in stainlesssteel tanks for three weeks and the wine remains on the lees aslong as possible, before bottling. † e wine is bottled young toretain its freshness.Bolla Soave is ideal for appetizers, grilled seafood, chicken, fi shbasedpastas, entrée salads; and also makes a perfect aperitif.\u003c!--CUSTOMER--\u003eMade from grapes harvested in the hillside vineyards of the Soave Classico area in Veneto, Bolla Soave displays a flowery and delicate aroma and a soft, full taste with a slight sparkle to it.

Quite dry (not sweet) on the palate, soft and with bright acidity, the wine shows flavors of baked cherry, chocolate and cinnamon. Structured but noble, delicate tannins precede a long finish.Amarone is a full-bodied wine for red meats, game, and tasty and piquant cheeses, like parmesan. Generally considered a wine for meditation, it is a great after-dinner wine.Amarone and its sweet counterpart, Recioto, have been produced in Valpolicella since Roman times. Virgil, Suetonius, Martial and Pliny the Elder testify to their existence. The original name for these wines was \"reticum”, later changed to \"acinaticum” by Cassiodorous, minister of King Theodoric. We continue to find historic references during the successive centuries: during the Longobard period, the Middle Ages, the dominion of the Scaligers, as well as during the Most Serene Republic of Venice when this wine was referred to, with great pride,  as a \"wine of the Doges”. The term \"recioto” probably comes from the dialect word \"recia” which means the upper and outer parts of the bunches of  grapes.  These \"recie” are  the grapes which are ripest and which enjoy the best  exposure to the sun. A second hypothesis derives the term \"recioto” from the Latin word \"racemus” which means bunch. A third hypothesis derives the term from \"recisus” which means \"cut and dried”. The existence of a dry Recioto wine is attested from antiquity, even if the term \"Amarone” did not make its appearance until the 18th century. The marketing of this wine on a large scale is more recent and only started during this century. Amarone is a majestic wine which combines dignity with power and grace.Amarone is the product of the ancient wine-making method called \"appassimento\" (drying of the grapes). At the end of September or the beginnning of October, the best clusters of grapes from the hillside vineyards  are picked and placed in wooden boxes or on bamboo racks. The grapes are left to dry for 36 to 48 hours in rooms with controlled atmospheres (controlled humidity and forced ventilation) and then in large rooms in the  old farmhouses in the hills until about the middle of January. There are large openings or windows to allow the free flow of air  which is vital to the drying of the grapes. \u003cp\u003eBy January the grapes weigh 35-40% less and have a naturally enhanced flavor and a higher concentration of sugar. Just the Corvina is attacked by  botrytis (\"noble rot\"). After a delicate pressing and partial destalking of the grapes, they ferment for about 50 days in large Slavonian oak barrels at low, natural temperatures (natural cold fermentation). The wine is racked off its lees, and transferred into barrels of 30-40 hl where the alcoholic fermentation continues for a further 3-4 months,  encouraged by selected \"Saccaromices Bayanus” yeasts. In the meantime malolactic fermentation also takes place. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnce the wine is completely dry, it is again rached off its lees and then continues its aging for another 20 to 30 months, partly in large oak barrels and partly in small Allier and Slavonian oak barrels of 600 litres (maximum 3 years old). The wine is then filtered, bottled and aged in bottle for an additional 6 months or more before release.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Masi","offers":[{"title":"1 \/ 1.50L \/ Red","offer_id":41342364812,"sku":"2069378-1","price":113.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1780\/9427\/products\/masi-amarone-della-valpolicella-classico-costasera-2010.jpg?v=1584807447"},{"product_id":"masi-amarone-della-valpolicella-classico-costasera-reserva-2011","title":"Masi Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Costasera Reserva 2011","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\" style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWine Advocate 94 points -\u003c\/strong\u003e This is a beautiful wine by the technical winemaking team at Masi.
