2018 Cesari Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Veneto

Winemaker Notes:  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.

Blend: 75% Corvina, 20% Rondinella, 5% Molinara

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


Wine Spectator - "A generous red in an elegant, medium- to full-bodied frame, with notes of mesquite smoke and bay leaf on the nose that form a savory baseline, underscoring the palate's ripe black currant, green olive, coffee and milled pepper. Well-knit, with supple tannins firming the finish. Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella. Drink now through 2030."
