The 2010 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico is a pretty wine, albeit not a particularly complex one. It presents its upfront aromas of dried fruit and spice with matter-of-fact confidence. From the successful 2010 vintage, it portrays a classic Amarone tasting profile. Drink 2015-2020. Antica Corte is a second brand owned by Cantine Delibori of Bardolino (and reviewed later in this report). Importer: Saranty Imports, www.totalwine.com
