Aromas of exotic spice, baked plum, leather and menthol lead the nose along with a whiff of crushed purple flower. The smooth hearty palate delivers mature blackberry, prune, cinnamon and pipe tobacco while velvety tannins provide seamless support.

Too late, we are SOLD OUT!
"It's not too often I run across an estate in Veneto that delivers this level of quality at what are exceedingly fair prices in today's market. Readers will want to give these offerings serious consideration." --- Antonio Galloni in Vinous
And Antonio is talking about the $50 price! We drank a bottle of this last night (with pork roast/dried currant sauce, yum), and it just was so, SO good, we thought “we should do something nice tomorrow, and just spread the love”. BOOM! Done.
This really is an amazing price for Amarone at this level. The tiers of deep, not-quite-jammy, plum flavors and the broad spectrum of spices and incense are simply irresistible.Outrageously great at 50% OFF today! Free shipping as always on 6 bottles, of course (that is less than $150 for a 6-pack!) --- while they last! Have a great holiday!
