Questions about Amarone della Valpolicella – 2019?
We are happy to help you with Cà dei Frati.
Amarone della Valpolicella DOCG 2019 von Cà dei Frati. Vier Rebsorten, dreijährige Reife, 94 Falstaff-Punkte.
Amarone della Valpolicella 2019 ist der kraftvolle Appassimento-Rotwein aus dem Veneto. Die Familie Dal Cero füllt ihn unter dem Etikett „Pietro dal Cero" als Hommage an den Vater des Hauses Cà dei Frati. Kein süßer Recioto, kein gewöhnlicher Valpolicella, kein Wein für den schnellen Schluck.
Amarone della Valpolicella 2019 ist ein trockener italienischer Rotwein der Cuvée Pietro dal Cero. Die Cuvée vereint 70 Prozent Corvina Veronese, 20 Prozent Corvinone Veronese, je 5 Prozent Rondinella und Croatina. Das Glas zeigt ein tiefes Granatrot, fast schwarz im Kern. In der Nase tritt zuerst Sauerkirsche hervor, gefolgt von dunkler Schokolade, süßen Gewürzen und einer floralen Note dunkler Veilchen. Falstaff bewertete diesen Jahrgang 2025 mit 94 Punkten. Es ist der Wein, mit dem Cà dei Frati die Lugana-Heimat bewusst verlässt und ins Veneto wechselt.
Sauerkirsche, Schokolade, dunkle Rose
Die Aromatik des Amarone steht auf drei Säulen: rote Frucht, dunkle Würze und florale Tiefe. In der Nase dominiert reife Sauerkirsche, eingebettet in Anklänge von Pflaumenmus und getrockneter Feige. Im Hintergrund stehen Zartbitterschokolade, Zimt, Tabak und eine Spur Lakritz. Mit Luft öffnet sich eine ungewöhnlich florale Lage — dunkle Veilchen, getrocknete Rose, ein Hauch Lavendel.
Am Gaumen ist der Wein dicht, körperreich, doch nicht schwerfällig. Die Tannine sind seidig poliert, die Säure trägt die ganze Wucht der Frucht. Auf 16 Prozent vol Alkohol gebaut, bleibt der Wein dennoch in Balance, weil die lange Reife jeden Eindruck von Wärme einbindet. Der Abgang zieht sich lang über Schokolade, Kakao und einen Hauch Pfeffer.
Wer einen leichten, fruchtigen Italiener für den Sommerabend sucht, wird den Wein als zu wuchtig empfinden. Auch für reine Liebhaber knackiger Junior-Tannine ist der Amarone nicht das richtige Etikett — die Reife hat hier alles weichgeschliffen.
Zu Brasato, Steinpilzrisotto und reifem Hartkäse
Servieren Sie diesen Amarone bei 17 bis 18 °C aus einem großen Burgunderglas. Dekantieren Sie eine Stunde vor dem ersten Schluck, bei jüngeren Flaschen gern auch länger.
An den Tisch passt der Wein zu kräftigen, langgegarten Fleischgerichten. Brasato al Barolo, Osso buco mit Safranrisotto, ein Schmorbraten mit Steinpilzen, geschmortes Wildragout mit Polenta oder ein klassisches Boeuf bourguignon spielen seine Tiefe aus. Auch zu gegrilltem Rinderfilet mit Trüffelbutter ist er ein Gegenüber auf Augenhöhe. Mutige Gastgeber probieren ihn zu dunkler Schokolade mit hohem Kakaoanteil oder zu Tiramisu mit kräftigem Espresso — eine Verbindung, die seine schokoladigen Aromen verlängert. Im Käsegang trägt er gereiften Parmigiano Reggiano, einen 24 Monate Gran Padano oder kräftige Bergkäse mit Honig und Nüssen.
Aus Erfahrung: Öffnen Sie die Flasche nicht zu jung. Der 2019er beginnt jetzt, sich zu öffnen, und wird in den kommenden acht bis zehn Jahren noch deutlich an Tiefe gewinnen. Wer aktuell schon trinkt, sollte mindestens eine Stunde Karaffenkontakt einrechnen. Für eine Vergleichsverkostung im eigenen Haus empfehlen wir den jüngeren Ronchedone 2023 und den Klassiker Amarone Pietro dal Cero 2018 aus demselben Haus.
Eine Hommage über die Regionsgrenze
Cà dei Frati ist eigentlich kein Veneto-Haus, sondern in der Lombardei verwurzelt. Das Weingut hat seinen Sitz in Lugana di Sirmione am Südufer des Gardasees. Dort steht es seit Generationen für Weißwein, allen voran den Lugana. Mit dem Amarone setzt die Familie Dal Cero einen bewussten Kontrapunkt. Der Wein trägt nicht zufällig den Namen Pietro dal Cero, des Vaters, der 1969 zu den Mitbegründern der DOC Lugana zählte. Pietro hat die Region maßgeblich geprägt. Der Amarone ist die Verbeugung der nächsten Generation vor diesem Erbe — gefüllt aus Trauben jenseits der eigenen Appellation.
Die Trauben für den Amarone werden im Veneto gelesen und anschließend nach Appassimento-Tradition getrocknet. Über etwa 100 Tage verlieren die Beeren rund ein Drittel ihres Gewichts. Was bleibt, sind konzentrierter Most, intensive Aromen und ein höherer Zuckergehalt, der im fertigen Wein in zusätzliches Glycerin und Volumen umgesetzt wird. Anschließend reift der Wein 24 Monate in Barrique, weitere 12 Monate im Stahltank und mindestens 24 Monate in der Flasche, bevor er das Haus verlässt. Insgesamt liegen also rund fünf Jahre zwischen Lese und Verkauf — eine Zeitspanne, die jedem schnellen Marktdruck widerspricht.
Die DOCG Amarone della Valpolicella ist eine der streng reglementierten italienischen Appellationen. Die Bezeichnung Amarone darf nur ein Wein tragen, der aus den autochthonen Rebsorten Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella und kleineren Zusatzsorten stammt. Die Trauben müssen vor der Vinifikation traditionell getrocknet werden. Dass die Familie Dal Cero hier mit einer eigenen Cuvée auftritt, ist im Markt eher die Ausnahme als die Regel. Üblicherweise wird die DOCG von etablierten Veneto-Häusern bespielt, die ihre Hänge in Valpolicella selbst bewirtschaften. Cà dei Frati hat sich entschieden, mit ausgesuchten Partnerwinzern zu arbeiten. Die Vinifikation übernimmt die Familie in der eigenen Cantina — eine Konstellation, die Konzentration und Stil in einer Hand hält.
Die zusätzliche Reife in der Flasche unterscheidet diesen Amarone von schnelleren Marktware-Vertretern. Wo viele Häuser nach der gesetzlichen Mindestreife abfüllen und ausliefern, lässt die Familie Dal Cero weitere Jahre ins Land gehen. Das Ergebnis ist ein Wein, der schon beim Öffnen Trinkreife zeigt, aber gleichzeitig noch Jahre an Entwicklung vor sich hat.
Ein Wein für lange Abende
Was diesen Wein besonders macht, ist die Verbindung von Kraft und Eleganz. Dabei sind die 16 Prozent vol Alkohol nie der dominante Eindruck, sondern werden von der gereiften Frucht und der präsenten Säure aufgefangen. Viele Vertreter der DOCG geraten in den Verdacht, monolithisch zu wirken — schwer, süßlich, alkoholbetont. Hier dagegen hat die Reife genug Zeit gehabt, die einzelnen Komponenten ineinander zu führen. Der Wein bleibt komplex, aber zugänglich. Als Geschenk für ambitionierte Weinliebhaber ist er eine sichere Wahl, gerade dann, wenn Italien zur Sprache kommt. Auf dem eigenen Tisch eignet sich der Pietro dal Cero für die langen Abende zu Beginn der kühlen Jahreszeit. Dann werden die Gespräche länger und das Essen wird kräftiger. Servieren Sie ihn dann nicht zwischen anderen Weinen, sondern lassen Sie ihn die Hauptrolle übernehmen. Ein Amarone trägt einen Abend allein. Er verträgt keine Nebenrollen und keine eilige Aufmerksamkeit.
Ein Wein, der nicht für die schnelle Runde gefüllt wurde — sondern für jene Abende, an denen die Zeit eine zweite Flasche zulässt.

How it all began
Does this sound familiar? You return from vacation with a bottle of olive oil from Portugal in your suitcase, a jar of fruit spread from South Tyrol, perhaps a bar of chocolate from a small factory in France — and you ask yourself: Why can't I find something like this easily at home? We kept asking ourselves this question.
We are Kerstin and Stephan Uhlenbusch from Nordhorn, a city on the German-Dutch border. On our travels through Europe, we made the most wonderful culinary discoveries: mountain apple juices from the high altitudes of South Tyrol, Breton barrel butter, handmade pasta from Italy, French sea salt. It wasn't the big luxury products that fascinated us, but rather the honest, artisan-made foods from people who put their heart and soul into their products.
In 2002, we decided to turn this passion into our profession: to make good food accessible to everyone who cannot travel to the producers themselves. This is how our gourmet shipping business came into being — initially as a store in Nordhorn, soon after as one of the first gourmet online shops in Germany. Back then under the name nur Gutes (only good things) — today we continue it as genussland.de. The ambition has remained the same: this is where good taste resides.
Who we are
What drives us is the same curiosity with which we started in 2002: finding out who truly makes good food. Over more than two decades, we have built a network — with producers, traders, restaurateurs, and culinary artisans from all over Europe.
Kerstin was the managing director of the association of leading delicatessen merchants in Germany — the industry association of the country's best owner-managed delicatessen stores. In this role, she not only accompanied but actively shaped the German delicatessen industry. With the deli Festival, we also launched our own B2B trade fair for delicacies, which brought together producers, traders, and restaurateurs from all over Europe. The festival no longer exists today — but the relationships that arose from it still accompany us.
What does this mean for you? We know our industry like almost no one else. Chambers of commerce and economic development agencies from all over Europe repeatedly introduce us to exciting producers who want to offer their products on the German market. This way, genussland always offers something you won't find in any supermarket and hardly in any other shop.
What you'll find here
Our assortment includes fine foods, delicacies, wines, non-alcoholic beverages, and selected kitchen and home accessories — from manufacturers in Germany, Austria, Italy, France, Portugal, Spain, England, Iceland, Denmark, Sweden, Greece, and the USA.
An extra virgin olive oil from Portugal, a genuine Aceto Balsamico from Modena, Fleur de Sel from the Breton coast, hand-mixed spice blends. Fruit spreads, aromatic honey, truffle delicacies, chutneys, and mustard sauces. Vintage sardines and fine canned fish, risotto rice, and handmade pasta — basic ingredients for honest cooking and specialties for special moments.
Our fresh delivery service brings the legendary Beurre Bordier from Brittany, Italian Burrata, and fine salami to your home — securely packaged and continuously chilled.
Wine is particularly close to our hearts: white wine from Rheinhessen and the Pfalz, red wine from Austria and Burgenland, rosé for barbecue season, natural wine for the adventurous, sparkling wine and champagne for special moments. Not from all over the world — but from winemakers we have personally visited and whose work we appreciate. Many of them work organically or biodynamically.
Our Philosophy
What makes a product a genussland product? We ask ourselves this question for every single item we add to our range. The answer is never one-dimensional – it's the combination of craftsmanship, origin, ingredients, and the people behind them.
We ask many questions before a product finds its way into our shop. How is it made? Where do the raw materials come from? What philosophy does the manufacturer pursue? We quickly notice whether we are hearing marketing clichés or if a producer is happy to explain their journey. It is precisely this enthusiasm that we seek – and repeatedly find.
Craftsmanship. We prefer products from small manufactories and family businesses that often produce their culinary treasures by hand for generations. The careful processing and artisanal skill can be tasted in every bite.
Best Ingredients. For us, good quality begins with the raw materials. Whether it's fruit, vegetables, milk, meat, or grain – we ensure that our manufacturers rely on first-class, as natural as possible, ingredients. Many of our producers are organically certified; our shop itself is organically controlled under the number DE-ÖKO-037.
Origin and Regionality. We appreciate products with a clear regional identity. A South Tyrolean mountain apple juice made from slowly ripened, old apple varieties. A Portuguese olive oil from trees that have shaped the landscape for centuries. These stories of origin make delicacies what they are.
Personal relationship with the manufacturer. We have known many of our suppliers personally for years, some for over two decades. We visit them, taste together, and exchange ideas. This proximity guarantees transparency and trust.
At the end of the day, it has to taste good. We try all products ourselves – not just once, but again and again while cooking, at the table, on the plate. Only what convinces us personally finds its way into the shop.
The people behind the products
What brings us the most joy: We get to accompany passionate individuals on their journey. People whose drive it is to make a good product even better. Some have been with us since our founding - for over twenty years.
There's the South Tyrolean fruit farmer who presses mountain apple juice from old, slowly ripened apple varieties, unlike anything else. The Italian balsamic family who ages their vinegar in Modena for decades. The Breton butter manufactory whose hand-churned butter is on the menu of the best restaurants in Europe. The Danish licorice pioneer who reinvented a centuries-old specialty.
Behind every product in our shop stands a person, a family, a story. And it is precisely these stories that make the difference between an interchangeable food item and a true delicacy.
This is where good taste resides
Whether you want to order fine foods online, are looking for a special wine, want to put together a gift for a loved one, or simply want to enrich your kitchen with high-quality ingredients — genussland is the right place for you.
Browse through our assortment, get inspired, and conveniently order your favorite products to your home. Read more about our approach on the Sustainability and Responsibility page. Do you have a question? We look forward to your message to our Customer Service.
