Little disappointed. Not improving year on year. It’s a nice, dusty cocoa dry Amarone. But not a knockout

An hour after opening it was too simple a wine. A few hours later it’s starting to sing more. Seems also more structured?

Gaso is the family vineyard high on the hills of Marano di Valpolicella. Very attractive nose of resin, butterscotch, prune, ripe plum, and cherry. Unusually bright and vibrant palate. Authoritative yet silky tannins. I think I paid $35 for this small production Amarone. A steal.

This amarone paired well with penne abruzzese with veal, porcini, and spinach. I liked the rich prune flavor of the wine.

Tart chewy cherry with rich blueberry and a slight spice and hint of chocolate on the palate. Dry with an almondy long finish. I'd love this with a duck dish.
