i Castei Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Corvina Blend
Valpolicella, Verona, Veneto, Italy
This is a nice Amarone. Showing red and black fruits with wood vanilla earth spices chocolates tobacco mocha and peppercorn.
Dry and fruit forward with a tangy finish.
Good right out of the bottle and better as it opens up and shows some tannins (45 minutes).
Simple and good by itself or with food. I paired it with a Filet Mignon and asparagus.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
89 points

Vintage 2015 | autumn leaves in smell, mediocre taste. I am sorry, but Amarone just is not my type of wine...

2015 hits with great flavors of cherry and a smooth finish. Paired great with a smoked prime rib.

Dec 17th, 2019Nice flavour of cherry and smooth tuch on the palate. Low on tannins. Deep cherry red colour. Smell of dark chocolate and wild berrys.

Top of the top. 2009 vintage, honestly one of the best Italian wines I've had. Fantastic finish
