Community Tasting Notes 22

  December 22, 2023 - Full, lush nose of black fruit with a bit of cedar and some raisin. The body is medium, the color brick throughout. This is soft on entry, taking shape through the swallow with some real heft in the midpalate and a longish finish. Notes of cacao at the very end. Perfect for drinking now, able to age for quite some time.

  April 14, 2023 - Medium ruby with some bricking on the rim. Medium-intensity aromas of fig, sweet balsamic, oak, freshly opened dried oregano, and cocoa. Molasses after 90 mins.
  
  Flavours of dried fruit, fig, dried herbs, chocolate, minerals, and sweet balsamic. Medium plus acidity with soft tannins and a long finish.

  February 4, 2023 - An enjoyable bottle but I was underwhelmed compared to other Amarone’s I’ve had recently. It was appropriately on the sweet side and big, but despite a few hours decanting didn’t taste well integrated and the finish was a little terse.

  August 23, 2022 - Very fruity, in a good way! Velvety smooth mouthfeel with moderate tannins. Starting to taste the age as the alcohol is well integrated. I liked the 2010 a bit more (both excellent years), which were both 7 years old at tasting. Not getting any raisin flavors typically found in Amarone. While it is drinking very well, I will give at least another year before trying again. 4.1 stars. Happy Birthday Dave. You would have been 65 today. Miss you.
