Country: Italy / Mithas
Variety: Corvina, Rondinella, Molinara Veneto
Winery: Corte Sant’ Alda / Amarone della Valpolicella
This hefty Amarone could use a few more years of cellar aging, but already it shows a dark, saturated color and inky density with smoked barbecue, prune, cola, leather and black pepper notes. The tannins are firm and show a touch of bitterness.
