Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 2008

Aged three years in large oak casks, this pretty Amarone offers youthful berry notes set against sophisticated tones of toast and smoke. The wine is extremely smooth, soft and supple on the long finish

Dark red. Reduced aromas of dark plum and cracked black pepper complicated by earth and porcini. Smooth, sweet and nicely balanced, with peppery red fruit flavors that linger impressively on the back end. It seems to me that this wine has a good dose of residual sugar but also enough acidity to come across as fairly dry. A little more complexity and I would have scored it even higher

Degani's youthful base Amarone opens with smoky aromas of exotic spice, leather and cured meat. In the mouth, the wine shows loads of luscious, sweet fruit with cinnamon and vanilla highlights
