Note di degustazione
Dark, almost impenetrable ruby. Seductive candied cherries dusted with cocoa powder and hints of ground pepper. Sweet and with plenty of depth on the palate but not brutally concentrated as this style often is. Supple deep sweet dark cherry and Mon Chéri (cherry liqueur chocolates), still with plenty of time ahead of it. Not overtly sweet and with perfectly integrated oak and velvety tannins. I would like to see it dryer, but that is something this style just can't seem to give. Alcoholic peppery tingle on the nose but perfectly balanced on the palate. (WS)

The 2010 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico is one of the nicest yet from this historic estate at the heart of Valpolicella. The Tommasi family has crafted a balanced expression with dark fruit, prune and loads of moist chewing tobacco. It is overtly sweet in the mouth and will appeal to those who enjoy the power and opulence of this unique Italian wine. It’s almost ready to drink now but could use a year or two to integrate.
