  Inbjudande doft av körsbärslikör, russin och annan torkad frukt, choklad och läder. Aromer som även går igen i smaken. Fin balans mellan påtaglig tanninsträvhet, sötma, alkoholvärme och syrlighet. Som ett lätt och piggt portvin.

  This is one of those wines that tastes great as you sip it on its own, but is a little boring alongside food. Smells like licorice. On the palate (and without food) I get get dark cherry and plum, with chocolate, and then licorice, sweet cigar, and vanilla notes on the finish. I also get lots of dried fruit flavors like raisons, or really fruit cake. Herbs on the finish. At 14.5% alcohol and 28 months in new French oak, this is velvety and opulent. I love the mouth-feel here—it’s thick and rich yet so alive. I can see why they make Amarone out of this.
  
  It’s a very delicious and sexy wine on its own, especially for what I paid, but I prefer wines to be more food friendly. If I want opulent, I’d prefer Amarone. If I want a high-end Italian wine to pair with dinner, I’d prefer Tuscany or Piedmont. I’d buy this again if I were rich and could buy without discretion, but not sure I’d buy it again when I have to be selective. Nevertheless, I was pretty sad when I finished my last sip.

  Dekanterades i 3h
  Inbjudande doft av körsbär, björnbär och sous bois. Efter ett tag kommer lite mer läder och rök, lite alkohol men svagare än jag minns från tidigare gånger jag prövat vinet.
  Lena tanniner med en viss syra som passar perfekt, mera björnbär, lite parfym, plommon, väldigt svaga russintoner. Otroligt snyggt vin med tanke på alkoholhalten, men är kanske inte helt min stil annars. Objektivt är vi nog kring 91-92 men subjektivt är vi på 89
