  March 27, 2024 - Delicious, soft mouthfeel, very enjoyable with veal chop and and osso bucco.
  
  The body is light/medium. The wine has smooth texture. The wine finishes short. The wine has low acidity.
  The wine looks garnet colored. There is no sediment in the bottle.

  February 4, 2024 - Bought this wine just a few years after release and stored it in temperature controlled cellar. Decanted for 1 hour. I was a little anxious that had I waited to long to open this , I was delightfully proved wrong. Not as much bricking as I would have thought for a 24 year old Amarone. This wine was delicious and in excellent shape. The tannins receded and the fruit was still alive and well, and the finish was long and dry. It paired wonderfully with my wife’s homemade veal osso bucco.

  January 9, 2022 - Delightful nose initially with hints o& butterscotch, Carmel corn , and slight herbal notes. Decanted about an hour and wine was soft and full of flavor.

  December 15, 2018 - this bottle was shared by christine who attended South Jersey CT offline held at Ravello in Robbinsville. Unfortunately, I detected a slight amount of oxidation/funk which may have needed time to blow off. I did not have the opportunity to re-visit the wine later in the evening. otherwise, the wine was enjoyable with nice amarone typicity. overall, i ranked this wine sixth in the lineup although i might have scored it higher had i been able to taste the wine after it had been open longer.
