One of the first truly impressive Italian red wines I encountered. Just an amazing Amarone from a superb vintage that overdelivered thanks in part to its humble co-op origins. A kaleidoscope of flavors ranging from sarsaparilla, mahogany, herbs, baked red fruit, and cherry cola. In a wonderful place with hints of tertiary components appearing, while the structure is perfectly balanced with acid/tannin singing out for a full minute on the finish. $45
