This wine opened up splendidly. A total transformation after an hour of decanting.

Russin, alkohol, körsbärslikör, mörka bär och svart te i en mustig kompott. Som ett portvin light med tydliga körsbärstoner. Fylligt med väldans snälla tanniner. Avklingande syra men håller ändå balansen. Ett vin som klarar sig alldeles utmärkt på egen hand.

(aveugle) Le nez présente des notes d'évolution prononcée, sauce soja, tabac, mais c'est la bouche qui surprend par sa puissance. Accompagnée de quelques sucres résiduels, elle tapisse complètement la bouche, c'est gourmand, hyper large, on sent un peu d'alcool quand même. Énorme si on apprécie le style.

Still good but definitely seemed to be at end of the line. Cork was perfectly intact. No signs of seepage or anything. Second bottle that seemed like it might be approaching end of life cycle. I would drink up.

Wonderful bouquet showing great signs of age with wet earth, heavy oak and muffled dark red fruit notes. Palate transitioned into something more port-like but showed elegant balance even though the heavy alcohol made its presence. Not dead, but would not wait too long until next time

Tasted over 2 hrs
-saturated dark red black no clearing
-fairly expressive raisiny
-barely med acidity, med+/high weight thick viscous fig faded dark fruit is big enough to cloak the significant heat and emerging mature elements, tannins mostly resolved
-this is a big wine on its mature plateau with classic Amarone features

Un po’ stanco. Cupo e Torbido nell’aspetto e all’assaggio. Un po’ troppo alcolico e sbilanciato verso le note morbide.

Still delicious. Tons of fruit, a bit high on the octane level, but enough acidity to keep it in check. On the backside of it's drinking window, but it can still go a few years. No reason not to drink them if you have them. This was our last one, we enjoyed them all, wish we had more.

Brick red, plenty of sediment. Decanted 3 hrs. Nice bq w dried cherries, crushed stone smoke, minerals, touch of thinner. Full body w lots of cherry fruit, very good acidity, integrated smooth tannins. Some alcohol. Balanced. Long aftertaste, quite nice, but no complexity: Time to drink up. Nice drinking, and good QPR.

Similar notes to last tasting, with some additional leather overtones now present in both the nose and palate. In a good spot and seems like it should continue to drink well to at least 2020.

Brickish red in color. Overripe & smoky prunes, hint of varnish/acetone, leather on the nose. Dense and ripe on the palate with crushed raisins, dark chocolate, almond paste, low acidity and a long sweet and leather tinged finish. Better than a bottle from 6 years ago.

showing its age and a bit of volatility on the nose, but still pretty solid on the palate. sweetness has mellowed with age and slight astringency that might be age-derived. Folks still enjoyed it and it had novelty value for them

Leider doch schon etwas alt. Nicht mehr ganz so präsent, insbesondere die Säure und die Fruchtigkeit sind abhanden gekommen.

Saying Hello to Infanta Mercedes Street (Restaurant La Piperna - Madrid): A brown colour, much duller than bottle of Dal Forno.
As already we suspected the Valpolicella was more potent than Amarone itself. Question of producers.
Aromatically was a more different style, needing some time to manifest with notes of liquor covered cherries, chalky minerals and milk chocolate.
Delicious, sensual palate is a medium Amarone style , with a good length but not dense enough to fill the entire mouth.
Notwithstanding that, until the last drop ...

De un color marrón, mucho más apagado que la botella de Dal Forno.
Como ya sospechábamos la Valpolicella era más potente que el propio Amarone. Cuestión de productores.
Aromáticamente era de un estilo más apocado, necesitando de un poco de tiempo para manifestarse con notas de cerezas bañadas en licor, minerales calizos y chocolate con leche.
Deliciosa, sensual al paladar es un Amarone de estilo medio, con una buena longitud pero no con la densidad suficiente como para llenar toda la boca.
No obstante lo dicho, hasta la última gota...

Sehr trübes Rot, volle Feuchtigkeit Nase mit kompottigen Komponenten. Im Geschmack breit und süß. Zum Essen sehr schwierig. Insgesamt sehr massiv und nicht gut balanciert mit zu wenig Säure und Frische.

Barely a hint of garnet at the rim. Unlike the last several notes, I find this still incredibly fresh and fruit forward. Some typical raisiny and resiny flavors, but they were there on release. I think this has plenty of life left. But it's absolutely gorgeous and sweet right now.

Best showing so far of this wine. Definite bricking on the edges. Medium weight. Sweet, nice rosey, pruny nose. Slight sweetness...raisin, fig, oak, baking spices. Well structured. Nice 20 second finish. I think this is in it's peak window. Can't imagine it will improve. Drink now - 2018.

Totally open for business, but certainly on its last verge of drinkability. Nicely balance between fruit and acidity. Tannins are totally integrated. Pleasant length on the finish.
