Famiglia Pasqua
Amarone della Valpolicella Corvina Blend
Valpolicella, Verona, Veneto, Italy
This wine is medium dark garnet with some brown starting to show. The nose brings enough savory for everybody. Currant, fig, and blackberry notes are draped in earthy scents like pepper, tobacco, oak spice, coffee, and tarragon. The palate holds a set of firm tannins and a racy acidity. Flavors of dark berries, cherry, and plum define the wine’s profile. It will pair well with pork, lamb, or veal.

Too tannic to drink. Perhaps drinkable in 10 years.

REALLY good. Complex, well balanced and perfect pairing with Italian dinner.

More of a “toned down” Amorone. Deep ruby color. Aromas of dried currants, blackberries and dark cherries with hints of violets and vanilla. The pallet notes the same dried fruits but they are restrained. Some coffee, vanilla and baking spices accent the mouthfeel. Full bodied but the tannins (are noticeable) are quite gentle. Velvety texture and very long finish. Nice wine. Thank you, Keith S.
