Tedeschi 2007 Capitel Monte Olmi Red (Amarone della Valpolicella Classico)
- Cellar Selection
- $95
This is easy to recognize thanks to its distinctive intensity and opulence. This 2007 may be the best bottling yet. It oozes with sweet flavors of cardamom, cinnamon, crushed clove, nutmeg and all kinds of ripe berry fruit. There’s a firm tannic bite on the finish, which is followed by long-lasting succulent sweetness.

Tedeschi 2001 Red (Amarone della Valpolicella)
- Cellar Selection
- $49
It’s the rare Amarone that demands cellaring these days, but this is definitely a candidate. Grilled black plum scents lead the way, followed by plum, prune and dark chocolate flavors. Dusty, cocoa-powder-like tannins and a small amount of sweetness should mellow in four or five years, so drink from 2010.

Tedeschi’s base Amarone is a beautiful wine with integrated flavors of spice and dark fruit that are evenly spread over its smooth, supple mouthfeel. Soft tannins and rich density make this wine a good choice for steak with creamy mushroom sauce.

Tedeschi 2007 Red (Amarone della Valpolicella Classico)
- $47
Tedeschi’s wines made in the traditional appassimento style always boast their own unique style and personality. The house style is sweeter, plumper, denser and more astringent than most. This offers endless intensity in the form of moist pipe tobacco, sweet plum and mesquite wood.

Tedeschi 2003 Red (Amarone della Valpolicella Classico)
- $50
Tedeschi’s base Amarone made with grapes from various vineyards is distinctive, unique and extremely succulent. The wine boasts chewy cherries, milky chocolate, natural rubber, raisin, pine, tar, maple syrup and black stone. In fact, there is no Amarone quite like it, especially considering the immediate, incredibly intense rush of aromas that it offers.

Tedeschi 2004 Capitel Fontana Red (Recioto della Valpolicella Classico)
- $60
Vibrant and full of good cheer, this ruby-colored Recioto boasts cherry, red apple, Turkish spice, leather and dark chocolate. In fact, it would make a perfect companion to chocolate-based dishes. The mouthfeel is chewy and rich with lively cherry intensity and silky tannins. It is worth pointing out, however, that I tasted three corked bottles before finding a good one.
