Although this hearty Amarone delivers a whopping 17% alcohol, the heat and power is well integrated within the wine’s juicy berry fiber and spicy aromas of clove and pepper. Pair this wine with thick pasta and creamy blue cheese sauce.

Elegant and tight with a bright cherry bouquet, this well-integrated Amarone shows nice balance between its ripe fruit flavors and its natural acidity. In fact, this is a food-friendly option that would pair with spicy pork or beef and broccoli.

This is an extremely opulent wine with rich notes of chocolate fudge, cherry liquor and accents of black peppercorn, ginger and oak. It’s bright and lively in the mouth with excellent intensity and durable persistency.

You can tell this is a blockbuster Valpolicella blend just by looking at it. Dense concentration and generous complexity set a somber mood, followed by smoked bacon, beet root, honey, maple syrup, prune and dried fig. In general this is a broad, horizontal wine (no thorny spikes here) with a silky-smooth finish.

Two of our reviewers zeroed in on the wine’s volatility, noting apple skin and nail polish aromas. But our third sampler found sweet, almondy scents and easygoing cherry and plum characteristics. A wine of no consensus: two-thirds of the camp found it lean and just acceptable; the other third liked it significantly more.

Here’s a curious Recioto with aromas of green olive and caper backed by blackberry and some distant spice. Sweetness and succulence push the wine forward over the palate but those green, herbal notes appear once more on the close.

This is an easy, extremely thin Valpolicella that offers bright cherry and berry aromas and a lean, citrusy finish. Those informal qualities gear this wine to a pairing with cheesy pizza and sausage.

Ripasso Il Vegro offers a rich and meaty bouquet with aromas of cured beef and honey roasted ham. There are also bright fruit tones of cherry and blackberry and the wine adds a crisp touch of sour cranberry at the very end.
