Tenuta Sant'Antonio
Campo dei Gigli Amarone della Valpolicella Corvina Blend
Valpolicella, Verona, Veneto, Italy
This wine speaks loudly through its minerals, but does not need to shout. The dark liquid gives off aromas of meat, fine cigars, dried fruit and a slight raisiny note. It is a complete joy to smell, let alone to drink. The palate is silky smooth, with tannins on the back end. Dark fruit dominates the flavor profile, but there is a hefty chunk of savory minerality that elbows through - ever so elegantly. Pair it with pasta, marinara, Bolognese, or just sip it and make dinner wait.

Lacking structure and body like most Amarone. Would have been good with pasta but lacked body for the steak dinner.

Dec 23rd, 201916/20 (88/100) Аромат с нотами ореховой скорлупы, спелых чёрных ягод, копченостей и гвоздики. Тельное с высокой кислотностью и интенсивными, сухими танинами. Грубовато во вкусе.
