Cantina di Negrar 2004 Red (Amarone della Valpolicella Classico)
Cantina di Negrar is an ambitious, quality-minded cooperative with 200 members totaling 1,200 acres of vineyard. Here is a base Amarone with plum, fresh prune, almond, mineral notes and distant Porcini mushroom. It has dried fruit flavors, chewy tannins and very good intensity over a long finish.

Cantina di Negrar 2005 Red (Amarone della Valpolicella Classico)
- Online Exclusive
Fruit for this ruby-colored Amarone comes from an organically-farmed vineyard and shows bright aromas of black cherry, raspberry, prune and plum. In fact, the clean quality of the berry nuances on display are what set this wine apart. It is smooth, sweet and sticky on the close.

Cantina di Negrar 2005 La Casetta Red (Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso)
- Online Exclusive
La Casetta is released later than this producer’s other Ripasso (Torbe) to achieve more complex aromas of licorice, cured meat and candied fruit. Cantina di Negrar is one of the Valpolicella’s biggest realities in terms of case production. —M.L.

Cantina di Negrar 2004 Vigneti di Negrar Red (Amarone della Valpolicella Classico)
The Cantina Negrar line (this cooperative is also responsible for the well-known Domìni Veneti line) offers good value and this delivers dark concentration and ripe aromas of mature fruit, raisin, coffee grounds and leather. Despite being young, it tastes older with tobacco and earth flavors and chewy tannins.

Cantina di Negrar 2007 Torbe Red (Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso)
- Online Exclusive
Torbe is a plush and fruit forward Ripasso with deep tones of spice, smoked bacon, cured meat and candied cherry. There’s thickness and intensity here that would stand up to spicy Indian foods. —M.L.
