Ok, admittedly my first amarone so didn’t know exactly what to expect. Having had Avignonesi Vin Santo I expected something complex but without the sweetness since they both go through similar processes to concentrate them. What I got was fairly austere in terms of complexity, fruit and finish. Astringent? Yes! Maybe a bottle problem? I have two more bottles but it will take some time before I’ll be ready to risk this one again.
