At a whopping 17.5% alcohol, this powerful Amarone delivers heat, brawn and loads of mature cherry, ripened blackberry and tobacco. You can feel the burn on the close so be careful to pair this wine with a hearty winter dish that will soak it all up.

A simple, crisp Valpolicella Classico that offers nice, bright berry notes followed by plump cherry and blueberry. It’s a thin, crisp wine with chewy fruit tones on the end.

Monteci’s base Amarone delivers better integration of alcohol with strong aromas of black cherry, Indian spice, suede and toasted chestnut. It’s a smooth, rich and finely-textured wine with a long, luscious finish.

Here’s a very powerful, alcoholic and almost caramelized Ripasso with immediate aromas of toasted oak, exotic spice, strawberry, blackberry tart and resin. The wine’s color is less luminous and shows a brownish hue: There is some gritty bitterness in the mouth.

This Ripasso will appeal to those who enjoy a bold, meaty style of wine. Definitely a solid choice for grilled steak, there are bold aromas of cured beef, spice, mature fruit and old leather.

From a warm vintage, this modern Amarone is surprisingly fresh, tonic and is packed tight with pretty berry nuances. There’s nice use of wood here that is relegated to a supporting role and the wine also has a sharp mineral vein that keeps it focused.

Here’s a smoky, oaky Recioto with aromas of exotic spice and toasted nut besides nuances of plum, blackberry, prune and cassis. This inky red dessert wine shows deep extraction and loads of power on the close.

This is a very pretty Amarone that shows medium intensity in terms of aromas and elegant tones of ripe fruit and spice. There’s a slight tannic bite on the close and the wine spreads long and consistently over the palate.
