Drank 10/6/23. Tasting event.

Scents of coffee dominate. Strawberry, cherry, and a bit of earth. Well balanced. Generally amarone is not my cup of tea, but this is quite nice.

4/22/7/4/4 +50 = 91 pts.

Founded in 1902 with a vineyard farmed by Giacomo's grandfather, located in Pedemonte village in northwest part of Verona, today run by the 4th generation of the Tommasi family. A blend of 50% Corvina, 15% Corvinone, 30% Rondinella & 5% Oseleta. Aromas of dried fruits with savory spice notes. On the palate sweet plum and sweet cherry flavors with pepper and cacao. Soft tannins, chewy on lingering finish ending with a fig character.

Had this in a restaurant! Founded in 1902 with a vineyard farmed by Giacomo's grandfather, located in Pedemonte village in NW part of Verona, now run by 4th generation of Tommasi family. A blend of 50% Corvina Veronese, 15% Corvinone, 30% Rondinella & 5% Oseleta. Aromas of dried fruits with savory spice notes. On the palate sweet plum and sweet cherry flavors with pepper & cacao. Soft tannins, chewy on lingering finish ending with an oak character. Nice!

Dried red fruits, leather, cacao, and spices. Paired beautifully with a dry aged NY strip steak. I’m craving some funky cheese to go with it.
