 Tasting Notes - Red Wine

  ITALY

VENETO
 
 

Amarone della Valpolicella
 

  Allegrini Amarone, 2001
(Classico, Allegrini)

Very good
Dark garnet, intense and spicy dark dried plum and cherry aromas, smoky, powerful (not surprisingly, 15% alc.) yet elegant. A real treat. €€€€ (Apr 07)

Blend of 75% Corvina Veronese, 20% Rondinella, 5% Molinara

 


Veronese & Verona IGT
 

  L’Errante, 2003
(Az. Agr. Tommaso Bussola)


 

Good
Interesting nose and aromas, very powerful (15.5% alc.), pleasant to drink but could benefit from a little more balance. €€€ (Mar 07)

Blend of 80% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc & Cabernet Sauvignon, produced in very limited quantities (11,000 bottles in 2003)

  Raudii, 2004
(Domini Veneti)


 

Good
Round, accessible and fruity, with aromas of vanilla. € (Jun 07)

Blend of merlot and corvina

  Regolo, 2002
(Sartori)

Good
Dark garnet, thick rich taste of red berries, jammy and robust. € (Mar 07)

100% Corvina, enriched by the ripasso method (time spent on Amarone lees) and aged 2 years in oak casks
