Incredible drinking experience. My first Amarone. Smooth and pruney. Excellent with food (several types of pasta and sauces) and alone.

Not as full bodied as I would have expected, even after a couple of hours of decanting.

Blend of Corvina (60%), Rondinella (30%) and Molinara (10%). Deep ruby color with a garnet tinge. The nose and texture are quite “Pinot Noir-like” with aromas of earth, spices and herbs. The palate is ripe red cherry/berry focused with hints of cocoa, baking spices and fresh herbs. Touch of pepper on the finish. Fresh tasting and vibrant. Velvety tannins. Pretty restrained for an Amorone.

On the nose, red plum, sage, eucalyptus, and smoky salami... On the palate, deep, concentrated, dark fruit along with a tannic tongue dryness culminating in a long, chewy finish... With food, this explodes in new directions... We paired this with our first course of meatball in a clean tomato sauce with amazing effect... The acidity of the tomato made this wine pop!

Classic Amarone, blackberry aroma, medium body, spicy aftertaste, strong tannins, paired well with heavier pasta dishes.
