Last bottle from a six-pack bought at release. Fully mature wine that still has a spark. Nice bottle with less brett than expected based on previous bottles. Drink up.

A stunning bottle, that still held its power and elegance. Although I would not keep for longer. Lovely scents of stables and poo (in the good way!) that went perfectly together with the notes of leather, wet wood, hummus etc... A surprisingly great wine.

Amarone tasting with "No Name" wine club (My House - Copenhagen): A lot darker than the Le Ragose 90 and with a very powerful nose of raisin/prune, brown sugar and a serious amount of manure. The level of discussions about what the manure were actually like were quite funny at this point of the tasting.. There is still a lot of fruit in the mouth with a hint of vanilla interlaced with a stringent acidity that almost makes the wine quite balanced. In my oppinion it did however seem a little bit closed and I needed a lot of concentration to find all the different flavours (wet hay and wood). Excellent length that ends spicy but to my it does come on as a little bit to alcoholic to really push the right buttons.

醒酒五个小时,中石榴红色,闻香有明显的烟丝,大枣,紫罗兰和巧克力的味道,香气深沉,还没等我记录这杯被璇了。两个半小时后再来,状态持续攀升,烟丝,甘草,果脯的香气,深沉厚重,入口酸度中高,单宁紧涩,颗粒细腻,酒液甜美,成熟黑果,烟丝,果脯,焦糖,草药还有烤面包的味道,香气浓郁,酒体饱满,后段能明显感受到集中度和力量感,酒精度不低,整体控制非常精准、平衡,浑然一体,给人感觉深邃,复杂而有内敛。虽然是1990的酒,但没有丝毫的老态和氧化,相反的,表现很强健,远没有到适饮巅峰期,不愧是阿玛罗尼的世纪大年,还有很长的陈年潜力,变得更加出众。

1997 Amarone Horisontal + Quintarelli (Copenhagen): Lots of sewer and other well-developed flavors. Surprisingly, it still has some fruit left and is quite impressive. 91-92p
