Product Overview
Winery's Notes
"The Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOCG is a deep ruby red where the full body is perfectly balanced with the refreshing acidity of the sip. It is a very intense and complex wine, rich in black fruits like black cherries and prune with hints of violet, black pepper, mediterranean herbs such as thyme. The nose goes deeper with hints of forest floor, grafite and tertiary aromas such as nuts, figs and vanilla. The sip is intense, with firm ripe tannins that are really well integrated in the wine and a very long finish. The wine could age for further 20 years, developing more tertiary notes."

"The 2020 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico is surprisingly lifted and airy in the glass, showcasing bright strawberry and cherry tones complemented by nuances of cedary spice. It is juicy in style, with silken textures and masses of ripe red and blue fruits that coast along a stream of cooling acidity. This vintage communicates refinement through the long and structured finale, coming across as savory with excellent length. Beautifully done." -EG, Sep/2025

"This Amarone leaps from the glass with an array of aromas that seem daunting at first but then are as comforting as a down comforter. Opening with aromas of ripe black plums, dusted with candied violet petals, espression and a distinct crushed chalk minerality. The palate is voluminous as dried black cherries, black tea and savory herbal flavors rush to meet the roasted coffee bean and licorice roots notes found on the compelling finish. Drink Now - 2045." -JP, 12/1/24
93 Points - Wine Spectator
"An elegant red, with a supple texture and a frame of fine-grained tannins, this offers a generous core of plumped black cherry and warm fig. Shows notes of pomegranate seed, mocha, vanilla and spiced orange peel animated by bright, plum skin acidity. Long and creamy on the aromatic herb- and graphite-laced finish. Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella and Oseleta. Drink now through 2035. 9,166 cases made, 2,992 cases imported." -AN, 12/31/24
