Serious and rather classy nose with decadent raspberry, rose petal, kirsch and a lovely earthy ness. Rich and silky in the mouth with well rounded tannic structure

Nice and deep, well rounded sensation. Bouquet is amazing and the dry fruits are definitely giving it its substance.
At the finish line however, the wine just doesn't keep its composure enough for you to go light and easy on marriage, so you should be careful of your picks.

God. Mindre sötma än flera andra amarone. Lite strävare smak.

This is a relatively "light" amarone. A deep nose suggests more but it does not quite have the depth and complexity I expect on the palate. Good cherries, smoke and chocolate. And a longish finish but not quite too class. Opens with time so don't rush it.

Beautifully smooth and warming although almost more Port than wine. Not as drinkable as other Amarones so, all in all, I was left feeling a little underwhelmed by it.

Skiid down to Cervinia, Italy from Zermatt Switzerland for amazing pasta, wine and espresso.
