David Sterza 2003 Red (Amarone della Valpolicella Classico)

  • Editors' Choice
  1. $42
Every once in a while, wine writers are awarded a producer like David Sterza: young, relatively unknown and full of promise for the future. His Amarone is a genuine “discovery” with beautiful, bright fruit, good cheer, cherry cough drop, red apple, coffee and dried herbs. This is a bright, lively wine and a wonderful expression of the territory.  — M.L.  (10/1/2007)

Inky and deeply concentrated, this masculine Amarone presents thick layers of lead pencil, black cherry and stewed prunes. It’s definitely on the bulky side, but it does offer succulent richness and chewy tannins with loads of berry fruit that will keep you warm on a cold winter night.  — M.L.  (12/1/2008)
