Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Corvina Blend
Absolutely massive upon opening, but slowly revealed such an elegant and classic Amarone.

Apr 29th, 2017Well balanced, but we failed to blind taste it. Way too light for an Amarone

Nov 2nd, 2016Has a very smooth, rich taste of dark fruit. Maybe a slight taste of vanilla as well. Exponentially better after breathing for half an hour. Pairs well with strong food like steak or sharp cheeses.

Nov 21st, 2015It pays to socialize with the sales reps from time to time, never know what they might leave you with.
This has a big nose with milk chocolate, some mint and cocoa wiffs, as well as airline cabin and chalk (?!). Keep in mind I have been tasting this on and off since about 2:45pm and it was opened around 11 am I think.
Im told 07 was awesome for Brunello and Amarone, this proves that it is. It matches flavor and feel perfectly. I could drink this forever.
It's rich, semi-dense. So powerful. This stuff makes me very happy. All I need now is a pot roast to go along with it.
