Getting near the end for this one. Not as rich as it was, I'm sure. Still very drinkable but no longer the amazing wine it was. Lots of raisin on the nose initially and needed time to open up. We didnt decant since we figured that would exact too great a toll on it

Still very dark after 17 years; ripe and rich but at the same time subtle and ethereal, complex and beautifully integrated, a bit port-like, with the nuttiness of 8 years on oak, plums and cinnamon; silky smooth, very elegant and refined, cherry liqueur, good weight but not heavy, dry but rounded; exceptional length with subtle bitters.

Très bon vin, toujours en forme malgré son âge.
Seule une pointe d'acidité en fin de bouche le rend inférieur aux autres millésimes bus.

Very nice Amarone. Not as good as the Bertani 1977 I had a few months ago.
