La Giaretta is an up-and-coming winery in full evolution with a modern approach and excellent pricing. There are deep oak aromas here that thankfully do not overwhelm delicate notes of cherry cola, cough drop, Indian spice, herbal infusion and almond. This is a spice-driven wine with a velvety texture and lively fruit on the finish.

Pretty color and density are backed by mismatched aromas of soy sauce, ginger, steak sauce and beef jerky. It’s a big, chewy wine in the mouth with attractive succulence and a fresh, long-lasting finish.

This friendly Ripasso opens with sweet and slightly overripe aromas of strawberry, spice, honey-roasted nut, cassis syrup, new leather and cola. It’s simple and straightforward in the mouth however with a raw, sharp feel.

Amarone I Quadretti opens with loads of ripe fruit, strawberry and exotic spice. The wine is packed tight with power and intensity and the mouthfeel is accented by luscious cherry, clove, leather, mineral and cola.

Here’s a very nice Amarone that moves slowly over the palate imparting aromas of red fruit, plum, cinnamon and clove along the way. Only that bitter touch of acidity on the end is slightly out of place.

This is a bright and easy-going wine would make a great companion to whole grain pizza or pasta with fresh cream and mushrooms. It ends with sharp, crisp cranberry flavors.

Bright acidity firm tannins are backed by jammy fruit aromas and a healthy dose of spicy oak tones. The intensity is here but the integration is slightly off for a wine of this importance.
