Brought to friend’s house for Thanksgiving (Jean). Once it opened, it was fabulous! Still lots of fruit, no tannins, just delicious!

Some subtle tannins left, but the dark fruits were mesmerizing. Well worth the wait!

first of 6 bottles we have. still young with moderate tannins on the back end, great deep color, fruit forward nose. We liked it and are looking forward to seeing how we feel about it in a year.

Last drank in 2009 and thought it had potential.
Tannins all smoothed out now, smooth and delicious! Don't see it getting better - drink up!
What a value!

Lee and I tried two bottles to be sure not flawed. Buttery up front but terrible ending
Lee says finishes with a strong dose of rubittusin

Drank at the American Hotel in Sag Harbor - paired wonderfully with our lunch. Crisp but not acidic and no overpowering oak....terrific!

A wonderful gift!

Absolutely nothing going on here until way late at the end and it's way too little to justify wasting time drinking

Very heavy for champagne but with an awesome nose - would let the bottles wait several years

Decanted for 3 hours and then poured back into bottle and brought to friend's house for dinner. Paired with delicious duck - it was perfect - smooth and silky without any tannins on the end - so glad I saved this bottle for a special occasion!

Decated about an hour - spectacular - exactly what an Amarone should be. Sad I only have one bottle.....

Very tight and tannic on opening, but after an hour in decanter started to show its pedigree. Still young and could use more time in the cellar.

Dissapointing - decanted for about an hour and still nothing. Sorry I have so many more bottles but perhaps it will be better with time.

Drinking well now, but will be better when more mature.

Mature already, the well integrated tannins and cherry flavors disguise the high alcohol content. Not nearly as raisiny/pruney as other Amarones, but very good.
