Community Tasting Notes 29

  December 25, 2020 - Siamo al limite.
  Amarone ormai arrivato al culmine della sua espressività, forse già in fase decadente.
  Tappo non in ottimo stato (sbriciolato), al naso regala ancora gioie con note animali, di tabacco e foglie secche. In bocca tannini ancora presenti ma il gusto va verso l’ossidato. Bottiglia da bere assolutamente ora, non più tardi.

  December 25, 2017 - Cork very good. At first mostly glue tones, opening up after 2 hrs in decanter w dried cherries, tobacco, minerals, figs. Rounded tannins, good acidity, fruit receding but still there. Aftertaste w mostly alcohol and sweet cherries. Old school Amarone. Drink up!

  March 10, 2015 - Deep garnet color.
  
  Fully developed nose with a medium+ aroma intensity. Dried red fruits, raisins, figs, prunes, oak, dill, leathers, barnyard and wet earth.
  
  A hint of RS on the palate with medium+ acidity, medium tannin and full body. The flavor intensity is medium+ with raisins, figs, chocolate, dried cherries, leather and wet earth. The finish is medium+ with chocolate dipped cherries and prunes.
  
  This is mature and a bit over the hill but a fully enjoyable of classic Amarone. Upon opening it was tight and showed almost nothing but wet cardboard and mud but it opened up after about 2 hours in the decanter. Drink your bottles now.
