Ruby red color with garnet reflections. Elegant and complex the olfactory impact of cherry jam, withered rose and spicy spices. On the palate it is warm and soft, with a great structure, with a high alcohol content balanced by a velvety tannin and elegant acidity and freshness. Excellent with roasts in general, game, braised Amarone, stew, lamb, tasty cheese, Monte Veronese cheese.

“Sweet violets and roses give way to black cherries, balsamic spices and white smoke as the incredibly pretty 2015 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva blossoms in the glass. This is an undeniably elegant and refined style, casting a polished display of licorice-tinged blackberries and savory herbs across a core of brisk acidity. The resulting expression is quite savory, tapering off long with building tannic tension that grows with each sip. Rich notes of mocha contrast fresh mint and saline minerals, as this finishes impossibly long with an umami feel. This 2015 Amarone Riserva gets an official “WOW!” in my book.”
