Lovely fruit and aroma. Dark Chocolate and spices. Not the best Amarone but good value.

Has aromas of a fine tawny port. Lighter body than what I'm used to, but still has those distinct raisin and prune flavors. It actually paired with pork roast because it was lighter.

Deep kirsch cherry notes on the nose along with dried current & cranberry and wet violets. Full and rich in the mouth with the low acidity and soft tannin slightly dominated by the alcohol. 89pts

Prime condition now, 12 years after purchasing. Surprisingly smooth and mild for an Amarone, with pronounced dried plum flavors. Paired very well with Manchego and Provolone cheeses, and Sorpressata and Prosciutto cured meats.

Love love love, silky smooth once it’s been left to breathe. Dark berries and aniseed coming through, very spicy and peppery.
