Ripe and decadently spiced, with concentrated kirsch, dark plum and cola flavors that are well-knit. The plush, creamy finish packs Asian spice notes. Drink now through 2025. Score - 91.

From the Veneto wine region, Fabiano Rugola 2016 Amarone Valpolicella Classico is an elegant, rich and concentrated blend of 40% Corvina, 30% Corvinone, 25% Rondinella and 5% Croatina wine grapes. Dark ruby in the glass with ripe red berry, cherry and balsamic aromas on the nose, the wine is dry, full-bodied and intense with liquid cherry, red berry, savoury herbs, chocolate and dark spice flavours finishing smooth and long on the palate. Pour with rich meaty dishes or a Bistecca Florentine. Drink or hold.

The perfect wine for celebrating someone special in your life. Drink through 2027, and likely beyond.[Luca Maroni tasting note not available.] Score - 94.
