Amarone

Bright ruby red colour with a subtly brightening rim. Very floral on the nose, of violet and rose, with fine mint and light citrus notes. Tightly interwoven tannins on the palate, balanced, elegant, with lots of fresh fruit and beautiful juiciness, plus grippy tannins, delicately lingering, long.

Dried cherry, dried cranberry, star anise, clove and a hint of pepper open the nose of this well-crafted Amarone. Soft and plush on the palate, highlighting dried cherry and loads of baking spices, the wine begins to reveal turned earth, bitter chocolate and floral notes as it opens. It's really well-structured, with elegant tannins and the needed acidity to keep the wine in balance.
