Marion 1999 Red (Amarone della Valpolicella)

  1. $80
A touch charred and meaty, as it starts with strong coffee, smoked meat and bark-like aromas. Opens with flavors of prune and black cherry, with shades of vanilla, leather and brown sugar. Rather lush and soft, with guaranteed appeal for those with a sweet tooth. Of note: it’s not that edgy, so drink it soon and try not to lose it in your cellar.  — W.E.  (11/1/2005)

Marion 2007 Red (Amarone della Valpolicella)

  1. $70
Marion produces some of the best Amarone available today, but this expression from the 2007 shows a touch of green fruit on the nose. Notes of dried sage and olive segue to a sweeter, plusher sensation in the mouth. In fact, the finish is extremely chewy and long.  — M.L.  (12/1/2011)
