Cesari Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 2015

On the nose, the typical notes of raisined fruit and cherry flavors are dominant. Mild hints of vanilla and spice are present as well. Elegant and warm with a velvety mouthfeel. Incredibly long, persistent finish that lingers on the palate. Amarone ages gracefully for upwards of 10 years if stored properly.

This well-knit red is medium- to full-bodied and stylish, with a crowd-pleasing mix of cherry coulis, star anise, fig cake and mineral flavors. Lightly chalky tannins firm the spiced finish.
