Unmistakably Quntarelli, though in a slightly more elegant package than the full-fledged Amarone. Fully resolved, polished, with sweet dark fruit, I wouldn't be surprised if this registered a bit of RS. Not one to drink on a regular basis, but a fun change of pace.

Was even better and more balanced than three year's ago and ready to go with 30 min of opening this time. Certainly a big wine, but still has great acidity to preserve the long and clean finish. I think this "declassified" production is better than about any other Amarone to my palate.

Excellent. Drinking well now. Leathery, complex nose. Soy, umami and sweetness on the palate, with some dryness. The sweetness and acidity suggests that this will drink well for several years to come.

Très bon, dans le style porto. Loin d'être sec, vaut mieux le boire en digestif ou avec les fromages en fin de repas. Début des notes d'évolution. 92.
