January 29, 2022 - Quite light, ripe plums, violets, cocoa. Decanted 1,5 h, did not get very far, low in energy. Seems past its prime.

January 5, 2020 - Poured rusty/brick red. Decanted for about 3 hours - I find that Amarone really needs the oxygention to develop. Initial nose ia plum, ripe blackberry, mission fig. Then goes quiet, then nose hits stage of strong alcohol, like brandy. Finally, it settles down and integrates into a dark, inky elixir of goodness - plums, raisins, dark fruit, a bit funky, and just awesome with wood fired steak with beef fat butter, Brussels sprouts. This is a wine that requires patience and planning, but is well worth the effort
