Description: | 98 Vm / 96 Fs. #1 Gvwm Staff Favorite 2024 - Skyler C. The 2012 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva Tb takes things to a much darker, deeper and more savory place than nearly any wine in its category. Cloves and cinnamon combine with balsamic spice, molten chocolate and medicinal blackberries as this blossoms in the glass. It floods the palate with racy, silky textures and an intense burst of ultra-ripe red and black fruits offset by a bitter twang of sour citrus and cocoa. Tantalizing acidity barely maintains balance yet ultimately succeeds. Exotic spices and dried black cherries saturate and are framed by a coating of fine tannins that promises decades of further evolution. This is a powerhouse.--Eric Guido, Vinous Media. Deep dark intense ruby red. Recognisable nose with notes of dried plums, raisins, dried rose petals, slightly volatile acidity, very open. On the palate clear fruit and great integrated tannin, opens on dried fruit, old school, comes in many layers; long, big, deep. - Ok & Ss, Falstaff |
