September 11, 2020 - Tasted over three days. At first, chocolate, liquorice, blackcurrant, a little raisin and hot alcohol. I found that a decant of more than an hour hurt it—the heat came forward as the fruit calmed down. Slow-ox was a different story. A few hours in the bottle brought everything into balance; 24 hours eased the medicinal qualities and made it feel classical; and on the third day it was glorious: all the above flavours settled, now with a touch of biscuit and maraschino cherry. If I had room at home, I’d buy a case.

February 9, 2020 - One of my absloute favorites regarding Amarone. Off course very powerful, but also more elegant than most, perfect for gruyere, parmesan and truffle honey. Drink or hold
