Still drinks okay. Some of the sweetness remains, along with slightly stewed plums and some of the raisin-y ness, but much less than typical amarone (or maybe I'm just out of practice having not had any for a while). Decent pairing with some spicier food. Almost certainly nearing end of its prime though.

Dark garnet purple in the glass, Big nose of dried cherries and blackstrap molasses. Palate echoes the nose with a bit of tar on the long finish. Full body; medium acidity; medium minus tannins. C'est incredible! Oh wait. That's French.

A taste of blackcurrant and liquorice. For the price a very good Amarone.

Good amarone, not great. Typical grapey taste, with a little tar thrown in.
Will not search out again with passion.
