Intense ruby red colour with violet hues; the aroma is reminiscent of ripe fruits such as cherries, sour cherries, prunes, blackberries and blueberries. In the mouth it is smooth and balanced with an aftertaste of spices, black pepper, cinnamon and liquorice. 
This wine can only be called Amarone if the harvest and the quality of the grapes comply with the specifications and if the drying process takes place naturally. 

Stefano and Nicoletta Campadelle purchased this outstanding property in the 1990’s to make their home and live amongst their vines in the Marcellise valley of Valpolicella. An obsessive dedication to quality and a respect for the land has put Marion wines at the pinnacle of quality in the region. The use of appasimento (partial drying) in all their wines makes Marion unmistakably distinct and unique.

The winery is located in the middle of the unspoilt Marcellise Valley, east of Verona. The corporate philosophy of the winery includes the balance between nature and people. The vineyards - mostly raised in the Guyot system - are home to the classic Valpolicella grape varieties, including Rondinella, Corvina and Croatina. In recent years, however, Cabernet Sauvignon and Teroldego have also been planted.
