This makes a great first impression in a flight of dry Amarones—lush, rich and balanced, with a blend of dried fruit (prune, dates, figs), spice and chocolate that end in soft, plush tannins. But it’s on the finish that a touch of sweetness comes through, probably limiting the food-pairing options to the cheese course. This would be delicious with pecorino or Parmigiano.

Doesn’t quite reach the heights of the 2000 edition, but it’s still darn good, featuring finely tuned scents of dried fruit and spice that dance on the nose. In the mouth, it’s a bit sweet, without the richness of texture to match, finishing with some dusty tannins. Best with hard cheeses.
