Winemakers Notes

Vibrant ruby color. The nose is huge, full of flowers and spicies as well as gobs of red fruit. Reminded me of a young, powerful Gevrey. The mouth follows with thick glycerin and blackberry jam, but it craves for sweetness and is left severely out of balance. I know its still a young wine, but I can see why the locals prefer their Amarone sweet.

Deep purple in color with a bouquet full of dried fruit. Rich and full bodied, intense and elegant. Velvety smooth. Amarone is an extremely important wine in Italian viticulture as it is unique to the Valpolicella region. Recommended with hearty dishes. Excellent with roasted red meats.

The grapes for this wine were placed on straw mats to raisin for 4 months before this wine was made. The result is a ruby red wine with deep, smokey, dried fruit aromas. The wine is very rich in fruit on the palate and very long lasting.
