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.

Excellent amarone très typique, superbe longueur en bouche, encore un peu jeune et les tannins vont continuer à s'arrondir avec quelques années en cave, mais déjà super produit rond, mi-corsé et doux en palais
