Saturday, October 24, 2015 - Dark purple in the glass with slow running legs. Black cherry and ripe plum on the nose with allspice, clove, vanilla creme and some heat from the alcohol.
Similar palate albeit less fruit than on the nose. The allspice is more pronounced and the clove notes become more anise-like. The tannins get quite grippy with a little air before smoothing out over time in the glass.
Never really did get that fig/raisin/prune flavor profile that I was expecting. Small amount of sediment present. Not very complex but pretty good overall albeit a bit different than most other Amarones I have tasted.
