The 2005 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico La Marega is a gorgeous, impeccably balanced wine bursting with personality. As it sits in the glass, layers of dark fruit emerge, followed by cherries in liqueur, spices, minerals and menthol. The 2005 La Marega possesses striking detail and clarity, both of which are commendable considering the challenging harvest. This is a wonderful effort from Le Salette. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2020.
This is a gorgeous set of wines from Le Salette, capped off by a magnificent 2004 Amarone Pergole Vece.
