* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012

The appearance here is beautiful: thick and brooding with dark garnet highlights. The nose is immediately attractive thanks to its sweet tones of cherry, cinnamon and clove and the mouthfeel is exceedingly plush and rich.

This is one of the most fruit-forward Amarones I have tasted from this vintage. The concentration and extraction is very good and the nose is richly redolent of plump black cherry, plum, blackberry and blueberry supported by shadings of chocolate, tar and caramel. Creamy succulence and a long, drying finish characterize the mouthfeel. Imported by Wine Wave.

* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012

This is a densely concentrated wine with lush and traditional notes of apple-cherry, cherry liquor, black chocolate and spice cake. What you notice most in the mouth is the wine’s almost excessive sweetness that is well framed within a context of firm tannins and good length. Imported by Wine Wave.

Earthy for certain, with clear scents of tobacco, dry leaves and dried cherry. Much more mature than its age might indicate, with a lean flavor profile and a lot of savory flavors. More of a drink-now kind of wine, and snappy enough to offset meats and other rich foods.

This is a very interesting Pinot Grigio with a unique aromatic profile that includes a green note of chopped herbs or crushed white pepper. There are pretty fruit notes too and the wine is silky and crisp on the close.

Nice and sweet on the bouquet, where ripe plum, marzipan and milky coffee hold court. Mouthfilling and ripe, if not all that powerful. It’s well made and easy to like, with ample dark berry and chocolate flavors. Very much standard fare yet likable.

There’s a distinct citrus note here that adds a layer of freshness over aromas of peach, pear and melon. In fact, 5% Sauvignon Blanc is added for extra fragrance. The wine is pleasantly tart and zesty on the close and would pair with grilled chicken or salmon.

Ripe fruit tones of strawberry jam and blackberry preserve open the wine and are followed by older tones of used leather and Indian spicebox. The wine is soft and chewy in the mouth with a succulent finish.

VillaBella delivers a generous Amarone from the Classico zone with loads of spice and characteristic blackberry and cherry fruit. On the one hand, the wine tastes a bit overripe with strawberry marmalade. On the other, the firm tannins and natural freshness keep it in check. Age this wine another five years.
