Very elegant and refined, this vineyard-designate Amarone presents focused and chiseled aromas of black stone, mature cherry, blackberry and loads of exotic spice.

Moist tobacco and Spanish cedar lend a soft, chewy element to this rich Amarone that is otherwise characterized by black cherry, prune and sun-dried raspberry. The plump, slightly sweet mouthfeel offers a twist of smoke, ash and gritty spice on the close.

Corteforte 2001 Terre di San Zeno Red (Amarone della Valpolicella Classico)

Here is a subtle, delicate style that emphasizes cherry cola, apple, root beer, nutty-green aromas such as dried chopped herbs or tea leaf, with currant berry and dried prunes. The fruit tastes very ripe in the mouth and this sensation is underlined by the wine’s natural succulence and chewy consistency.
