Still a youthful edge to its colour, lots of fruit on the nose and along the palate, with hints of sandalwood and leather and some interesting, elusive acetone. well structured, balanced and elegant. Tannins are fully integrated and silky and reappear at the end of a long finish. Just lovely with very good rib steaks. I note the prior reviews from 2011 were not as favourable and wonder if the wine just needed that much more time.

Not a bad Amarone, but not the best. We've had better DueTorri's before. Maybe it was the vintage?
