  Powerful nose of plum, black fruits and leather.
  
  Corvina 80% and Rondinella 20%. Cuvée known for its fresh plot which avoids the over-ripeness often observed in Amarone
  
  Quite linear on the palate with a frank attack on black fruits and leather, it's pleasant but not really enough to make an impression. Well made and balanced wine but lacking character. Nice finish on the tobacco though.
  
  Good

  colore non particolarmente attraente o prezioso, virante sul leggero granato; naso un po' piatto e non complesso come ci si aspetterebbe da un millesimo così, sovrastato da una nota non gradevolissima di idrocarburi e cenere, polvere, poco frutto, poca spezia; palato molto fresco con ottima acidità ma non controbilanciato da rotondità e peso adeguati, sorso spedito ed elettrico ma poco avvolgente e non specialmente lungo. In generale non ottimo equilibrio e beva non piacevolissima

  Medium ruby. Camphor fragrance. Medium weight, high acidity, and a ton of soil encasing a core of some texture and fruit. Very structured with tannins that really bite and reach the corners of the mouth. I am just not sure there is sufficient flesh to outlast its clenched grip.
