Country: Italy / La Tirela
Variety: Red Blend Veneto
Winery: Cantina Valpolicella Negrar / Amarone della Valpolicella Classico

Aromas of baked plum, cake spice and a whiff of dried herb lead the way. The palate is straightforward by Amarone standards, offering dried black cherry, nutmeg and a hint of licorice alongside close-grained tannins that leave a drying finish.
