A compact Amarone, with dried mixed fruit, spice and mineral aromas and flavors. Full-bodied, with fine tannins and a refined finish. Very typical and elegant. This is very well done for this producer. Best after 2006. 5,500 cases made, 400 cases imported.??–null??Region: Italy / Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Select to Add

Starts out sly and smooth and gains complexity as it opens. The bouquet is classy, with scents of black cherry, fine leather and spice. Perfectly balanced on the palate, and sporting a classic mix of cherry, plum and vanilla flavors. Feels great at all stops, with some chocolate to the ever-lasting finish. Can drink now or hold for up to 10 years.——W.E.(11/1/2005)—— 92
