Product Details
Voluminous and imposing, even by Amarone standards, this chest-warming, well-structured blend of dried grapes requires air or more time in bottle to fully reveal itself. The intensity and density of the palate suggests a substantial amount of dry extract while a slight bitterness helps to freshen the palate. Spicy oak is fully soaked up by the thick fruit and the length is very good. A bit coarse at present but is likely to settle with time. Best served at cellar temperature to quell the heat of this brawny wine. Tasted November 2024.
