NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Giuseppe Lonardi Amarone della Valpolicella Classico is an intense and deeply concentrated red wine.On the nose, aromas of blackberries, dark cherries, and dried figs combine with notes of crushed rocks, leather, and tobacco. On the palate, this full-bodied wine is powerful and dense, with firm tannins that are balanced by a hint of sweetness. Flavors of dried fruit, licorice, and dark chocolate linger on the long finish. This is a complex and elegant Amarone that will age gracefully for the next couple of years.
