Amarone della Valpolicella Valpantena DOCG 2014 – Bertani
With an intense ruby colour, it offers up great
aromatic richness on the nose, fruity notes
of cherry and blackberry and spicy overtones
of cinnamon and pepper. The caressing, soft
and creamy palate gives way to an intense and
persistent finish, with close-knit, meaty tannins.
