  • 92+ points Gary Vaynerchuk: "COLOR-dark; NOSE-very nice; romantic; made me think of Christmas (Egg Nog & peppermint); very minty which I like; TASTE-Wow; the gorgeous love child of a great Amarone & a tremendous Barbaresco; this is Exceptional; balanced, elegant; tons of fruit; Explosive, yet balanced; very round; very focused & tight & fresh; bright & elegant w/ tea leaf aspect; bright candied red fruit; nice blackberries; licorice reduction sauce; this tastes like a $100 wine to me; very undervalued area; bright, focused & charming; intense, rich, elegant, focused, bright and just well made; I'm a big fan; I'm completely blown away."

  • Great palate-expander for fans of Barolo or Barbaresco!

      Picked up a 3 pack of this before FS and am eagerly awaiting the right moment to pop one. A combo Amarone/Barbaresco….how could you go wrong?
