"The first single vineyard produced in the region. 8 ha, all pergola and sited c.400 metres. Subsequently the appassimento is extremely slow, completed in small buildings in the middle of the vineyards, on bamboo racks. Aromas of salumi, tarragon, fennel and the signature bitter, pithy, molten cherry bon bon notes that define Amarone. Incredible levels of extract here, coating the inner gums with a curvaceous brushstroke of tannin. The finish is firm, ferrous, coffee-grind gritty and impressive, with a twist of bitter orange chocolate at the finish to tone the lingering sweetness. Drink or hold."
