Nose: The nose is perfumed, but dense, with dark chocolate, black cherries, raspberries, tobacco, liqueur, and licorice tones. While there is a richness to the nose, it possesses an elegance as well.
Taste: Full bodied with silky, but youthful high tannins. The feel is plush and dense with dark chocolate, black cherries, raspberries, liqueur, and licorice tones.
Overall: This is a go to when one wants a more affordable Amarone. It leans more elegant than brutish with excellent depth on the nose and palate.

Garnet, with a medium body Dusty/musty, dark cherries and chalk on the nose Meaty, earthy, a big 'bomb' of dark fruit A good wine, but very simple in its makeup. Nothing excited me whatsoever. It's a simple bottle to quaff, although i would spend my money elsewhere.
