  From 0,375. Decanted for 1,5h. Medium tawny color with discoloration on edges. Intense sweet aromas of raisins, prunes, sweet cherries, vanilla. Full bodied, medium acidity, silky tannins. Strong taste of sweet cherries, prunes, dark chocolate. This wine is bit on sweet side. Very good.

  From a 375ml bottle. Browning in colour now, with some bricking. Deep rich, sweet cherries and iron on the nose. Medium-full bodied, with a smooth, sweet, concentrated palate with dark cherries, rich plums and semi-sweet chocolate; there are still some tannins and a lot of sediment. Very Amarone (A-).

  Been walking around this one for years now in my cellar. It was worth the wait. Fantastic. I am not even sure what to write as we just simply enjoyed the experience of drinking this wine after 15 years. Drinking perfectly at the moment. All agreed, perhaps the best Amarone we ever drank. Whoever still has a bottle, have fun.

  Black ruby with a glass-cherry rim. Focused, elegant, perfumed, prunes in chocolate. Palate is fresh, lively, still very much young, red fruit, very mineral. Drying tannins. Medium finish, with signature spice. Most elegant of the set. VG. Vertical tasting at Chic'N'Quick in Milan.

  Blackish garnet color. Aroma of tar and cherries. Nice fruitiness without being cloying with a hit of tar. The tannins are soft until the end of of the finish when they suddenly appear with forceful dryness.
