Tasting Notes

Colour

apricot

air Nose

it's massive. Loads of toasted wood and cherry liqueur, plus fig leaves and a very vegetal smoke. It's quite extreme, but then again, with Amarone, one should have expected that. With water: rather better, on cedarwood, spruce, leather, and a hint of baked aubergine

restaurant Palate

harsh. Bitter cherry and black pepper. With water: the bitterness remains. Strongly infused black tea and still plenty of pepper

timer Finish

long, bitter, more amaro than Amarone (good one, well done, S.)
