Il Cedrone Rosso NV

Veronese IGT

Il Cedrone's a truly seductive style of red, halfway between fragrant, silky Valpolicella and the weightier Ripasso version. From Trophy winning Cantina di Negrar, one of the region's finest cellars, this rich red has deep cherry fruit and spice.

Founded in 1933 and credited with inventing Amarone in 1936, Cantina di Negrar is one of the finest cellars in the Veneto. It's won Trophies galore and in 2019 was named Italy's Finest Co-operative. Danielle Accordini is the impressive winemaker, who knows each of his 220 growers and vineyards personally. Il Cedrone is a delicious style of red – with a little of Amarone's intensity, yet with the freshness of Valpolicella. Its secret is the Ripasso style – the wine is refermented on the lees of an Amarone style wine to lend power and richness, but still retains its classic bright cherry tang. Named after a rare bird found in the Lessina mountains nearby, whose conservation the cellar supports, it's ideal with grilled meats and hard cheeses.
