To produce it, the native vines of <em>Corvina Veronese, Corvinone and Rondinella<\/em> are used as per regulation. It is produced from the withering of the grapes and <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">its name &#8220;Amarone&#8221; indicates the difference with the &#8220;Recioto&#8221;<\/span>, a sweet <em>passito<\/em>, made with a similar procedure in the same areas of Valpolicella. Today the areas of production of Valpolicella wine have been extended beyond the traditional area which includes <em>Marano, Negrar and Fumane <\/em>(Valpolicella Classica), to the northeast valleys of <em>Mezzane, Marcellise, Illasi and Tramigna (<\/em>Valpolicella doc<em>)<\/em> and to the area of <em>Valpantena<\/em> (<em>sole recognized sub-area<\/em>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For today\u2019s recipe we recommend a winery that is exactly behind our house in Marcellise, in the extended Valpolicella area. This is the <strong>Azienda Agricola Marion<\/strong>, a family-run winery that produces excellent wines with the highest quality standards. Founded in the 1980s by Stefano Campedelli and his wife Nicoletta, the Marion company is <em>extremely attentive to the care of its vineyards<\/em>, respecting their natural balance and enhancing their wines through all stages of production. Moreover, they are very nice and helpful!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"772\" height=\"515\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ilbabbuinoghiotto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Risotto-Amarone-di-Valpolicella-Marion.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1123\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ilbabbuinoghiotto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Risotto-Amarone-di-Valpolicella-Marion.jpg 772w, https:\/\/www.ilbabbuinoghiotto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Risotto-Amarone-di-Valpolicella-Marion-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ilbabbuinoghiotto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Risotto-Amarone-di-Valpolicella-Marion-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ilbabbuinoghiotto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Risotto-Amarone-di-Valpolicella-Marion-320x213.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 772px) 100vw, 772px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:42% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ilbabbuinoghiotto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Risotto-Amarone-di-Valpolicella-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2628\"\/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p>For our recipe you can choose whether to prepare the traditional risotto using their <strong>Amarone<\/strong>, or to try a revisitation using the <strong>Valpolicella Superiore<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the second case you get a softer and sweeter risotto, so it\u2019s advisable to halve the amount of onion for the <em>soffritto<\/em>, which is used instead in the Amarone risotto to mitigate the taste.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ingredients for 4 people:<\/strong><br>400g <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Vialone Nano<\/span> rice<br>900ml vegetable and chicken broth<br>300ml <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Amarone<\/span> or <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Valpolicella Superiore<\/span><br>30g red onion<br>extra virgin olive oil<br>60g grated Grana Padano cheese<br>a knob of butter<br>salt and pepper to taste<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Preparation<\/strong><br>&#8211; Fry the chopped onion in a saucepan with the oil and set it aside.<br><br>&#8211; Toast the rice in a saucepan with the oil for about 3-5 minutes, until it becomes translucent.<br><br>&#8211; Add the Amarone to the rice, raise the heat and allow the wine to evaporate, stirring gently.
