Amarones can never be rushed. Grapes are harvested and then dried on straw mats for several months before fermenting. At Marchesi Biscardo, they age the wine 3-4 years in Slovenian oak casks and an additional year in bottle before releasing it to the world. This process results in highly concentrated, rich wines that should never be rushed at the table either. A classic.
