2000 Bertani Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOCG, Veneto, Italy

Winery Notes: Deep red colour with light garnet nuances. Intense, persuasive on the nose, it immediately strikes for its rich bouquet. It starts revealing blackcurrant jam and fresh notes of blackberries and dry plum, followed by flavours of chocolate, sweet species, tea leaves, liquorice and dried fruits. On the palate, tannins are powerful, but at the same time soft and velvety. Very intense, bold and pleasant with a good balance between acidity and smoothness." - Bertani
