1997 Allegrini Amarone della Valpolicella Classico

(93 Points)  --  (Wine Spectator)

Richly tarry on the nose and palate, offering grippy tannins and flavors of baked raspberry, singed orange peel, espresso, dried marjoram and crushed clove and pink peppercorn. A vibrant version that's still tightly knit, with a lasting finish of spice and wild strawberry accents. (AN)  Review Date: 11/2016
