A leather, vanilla, chocolate, prune and cherry. Very good amarone. — 9 months ago
Nose: sea breeze. White flowers.
Palate: elegant yellow fruit. Long. Balanced. — a year ago
Relatively deep color. Rich nose of dark and red berries, along with dried cherry and dry plowed gravelly earth. Mouthfilling and soft, it’s straightforward and quite satisfying. Some soft tannin prevents it from feeling too fat. Acids are soft.
