Nicolis 2000 Ambrosan Red (Amarone della Valpolicella Classico)
- $75
Exotic and dense, with tar, tree bark, leather and a sweet blast of cola all making for an alluring, magnetic bouquet. Racy and snappy in the mouth, but rich and relaxed enough. And the flavors of black cherry, vanilla and spice sing in perfect harmony. Deep and on the mark.

Nicolis 2004 Ambrosan Red (Amarone della Valpolicella Classico)
- Online Exclusive
- $80
Ambrosan takes Amarone intensity to the next level. The wine is plump, rich and loaded with dark fruit, spice and smoke. Possible food pairings include red meat or roast pork that would match the stamina, but also the overall softness of the tannins.

This is a modern, plump rendition of Amarone, with soft lines and chewy aromas of black cherry, chocolate fudge, cinnamon and blackberry preserves that are immediate and upfront. The rich, velvety texture make this a great candidate for pairing with wintery cheese fondue.

This is a bold, New World interpretation of Amarone. It has subtle aromatic nuance that bring it back home to Valpolicella such as sun-dried raisin, cola, subtle shadings of white mineral and barbecue sauce. It also has sweet tannins, impressive length and dried fruit on the finish.
