Costasera Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Corvina Blend

Turns out if you let a good vintage sit for 11 years... even THIS can be considered a great amarone. More along the subtle, well-balanced and nicely rounded style. Glad I waited.

Aged deep dark color. Restraint but quite impressive raisins, blackberry, tobacco, chocolate. Dry, Tannin and bitterness dissolved. Muscular amarone.

2006. Bought a bottle a few years after release and opened it up a little while after that. It was corked, and The Still replaced the bottle for me. I’ve let the replacement sit in the cellar until now because I was worried it might also be tainted... this bottle is so good! Pure cherry-berry fruit, velvety texture, enough tannins to pair with dinner, and no heat from the 15% abv.

Full and fruity with a juicy finish. Great to complete a big meal. For 2006 vintage

Lots of black pepper!

Easy drinking. Smooth and full bodied. Cherries and blackberries. 2006 vintage.

not bad, different taste than id preffer

I was expecting more.

OMG stewed fruit. Aged and delicious.

Heaven!!
