Tasting notes
Looking at the past review of this wine in our database, it was assigned a much shorter drinking window. Outpacing previous expectations, the Bertani 2000 Amarone della Valpolicella has reverted to tertiary aromas for sure, but it's still holding strong, offering good complexity along the way. There are hints of charred meat, toasted spice and crushed stone over a core of dark fruit. It finishes with a delicate, mid-weight touch.

The 2000 Amarone (70% Corvina, 25% Rondinella, 5% Molinara) is big, rich and sexy in the way it combines fresh, vibrant rose petals, red cherries and spices with a firm, structured personality. Although it is not especially generous in its fruit it does offer notable poise in a powerful, muscular style.
