2019 | Gerardo Cesari | Amarone Bosan

Concentrated and full-bodied, Bosan displays jammy, raisined fruit flavors. Ripe red cherry notes envelope the palate, while subtle cocoa and vanilla notes follow on the lengthy finish. A powerful wine by nature with a velvety texture, Cesari Bosan Amarone is rich, elegant, and warm.

Producer Information

Gerardo Cesari is a wine estate founded in 1936 in the Veneto region of Italy. It is known for its traditional DOC and varietal IGT wines from the region, and in the 1970s, Cesari Amarone was one of the first to reach all five continents. Since then, the winery has aimed to maintain a presence around the world. Owner and winemaker Franco Cesari, the son of founder Gerardo Cesari, oversees the estate. The estate accounts for around 100 hectares (247 acres) of land in Valpolicella and Lugana. This includes the Bosan, Il Bosco, Jèma and Cento Filari vineyards, which are all intended for top quality wine production. The Bosan vineyard in Valpolicella is planted 80 percent to Corvina and 20 percent to Rondinella, and makes up Gerardo Cesari's top wine, Amarone Bosan. The site covers ten hectares (25 acres) with vines trained to a Pergola Veronese system. The grapes for this wine are dried for four to five months and, after vinification, are aged in both barrel and then in bottle. Cento Filari, a ten hectare site situated between the villages of Peschiera del Garda and Pozzolengo near Lake Garda, is another vineyard of note as it is planted to the indigenous white variety Turbiana. In 2014, a majority shareholding in the firm was bought by regional cooperative (and large-scale national player) Caviro. In 2019, Cesari secured €20m to build and upgrade winemaking and storage facilities in its second, Fumane-based, operation in the Valpolicella Classico region. The original Cesari operation is based just outside the town of Cavaion Veronese, 20km (12 miles) northwest of Verona on the southeastern shores of Lake Garda. Fumane lies 15km (nine miles) due east of Cavaion Veronese.
