A good Amarone for $45. Classic profile you’d expect. It was lacking the velvety feel and was not as seamless as others I’ve had. The alcohol was very noticeable. Still a good wine, good value and likely to be a crowd pleaser.

EYE: super dark garnet, almost opaque, with a slight dark red-orange tint at the rim. NOSE: raisins, sweet, ripe dark cherries and spice (cinnamon), a hint of sherry on the backnote. PALATE: raisins fade and cherry takes the front seat backed by good tannin. OVERALL: I'm not an expert on Amarone, but found it nicely representative of what I've tried before.

A bit past prime, but still drinking well -- classic and true to style, wish I had more.

This was the favorite of several of our guests. Tasted side by side with a Cesari, a Bolla, and a Laformica

Très alcoolisé , c'est l'alcool qui domine le goût ...
