Dark cherry jam, black plum, touch of pepper. Lots of fruit balanced with acidity. Big wine as it’s an Amarone but enjoying it more after it’s been open a few days

What a pleasing phase: fresh fruits of plums and black cherry complimented with a little prune, field herbs, dark chocolate and oak. Great balance and restraint for Amarone

Really incredible, artisanal, drier style of Amarone yet still retains good fruit and juice. Not syrupy or out of balance in any way. Good mix of herbs and spice and opulence in the wine while still holding firm tannins. Could drink now with decanting and a plate of beef. One of the best Amarone's I've sampled.

Excellent example of Amarone. Still young at 7 years but really nice with our dinner in a farm to table Italian style Restaraunt in Vermont.
