Vintage 2013 Shy smell with clove and refinement. Unbending taste certainly not middle of the road...

Too early. Soy sauce. It'll age well.

First serious Amarone I've had ($85). A huge but balanced wine at 15%, the fruit is so concentrated and tannins so strong but supple. See you in 20.

Very much alive and elegant, with smoky tar and chocolate notes, and rich fruit.

Magnum opened on arrival in Boston. Twizzler nose. Cherry coke raisin. Smooth. Very subtle tannins. Love it.

Intense Amarone. Excellent nose of cedar and earth. Cherry flavor so intense it leans towards cough syrup. Tannins are perfectly smooth. Great with chocolate.

HWT - I had high hopes for this $80 Amarone, but we were disappointed by the lack of easing flavor.
