Other Reviews....
Warm spice and graphite notes accent the baked cherry and plum fruit of this medium- to full-bodied Amarone. Well-balanced, with savory notes of smoky mineral, espresso and herb playing on the ripe fruit and chewy tannins emerging on the finish.
Drink now through 2025. 1,200 cases made, 400 cases imported.
