Manara’s base Amarone is a slow, cautious wine that evolves to reveal apple-nut, chewy cherry and lavish dustings of chocolate powder. Less successful, however, is the mouthfeel: tight and firm but also slightly astringent. Any hard edges will surely diminish with time.

Le Morete ripasso opens with floral tones and sweet red fruit with background shadings of cola, root beer and candy. The wine is fruity and sweet in the mouth with a medium-long finish and a soft, supple feel. Imported by Italia Wine Imports.

Thick and luscious with a modern, New World temperament, this succulent expression of Amarone offers juicy notes of mature fruit and spice (Oseleta and Croatina grapes are added to the traditional blend). There is a touch of natural rubber or Band Aid that could intensify with time. Otherwise, you’ll enjoy the wine’s soft, velvety texture.

This is a recommended wine for those who love classic expressions of Amarone. The wine’s intensity is fueled by aromas of cherry, apple, spice and chocolate and it really comes alive in the mouth thanks to a long, fresh trail of cola and dried herbs.

Le Morete is a beautifully executed ripasso with thick tones of dried fruit backed by balsam notes of cola and root beer. The wine is thick and dense yet exhibits a traditional style with integrated oak notes that are subtle and elegant. It also has a subtle note of natural rubber at the back. Imported by Italia Wine Imports.

Following a generational change, Manara is another small producer who sparks buzz and renewal in Valpolicella. Made with carefully selected fruit, Postera is a confident, sassy wine with baked apple, root beer, rose petal, mineral notes and characteristic Amarone intensity.
