Of all the large producers in Valpolicella, Zenato remains my favourite. All the baking spice, tamarind, sultana and red fruit character I can want in an Amarone! — 3 years ago

Stunning nose. Caramel, honey, butterscotch, white chocolate, sultana, so complex. Just stunning. Peaches. Apricots. In their juices. Mushroom. So so complex. Brown sugar. Palate is luscious, racy and super clean. Nimble and elegant this is decidedly old school Auslese. Balance is superb. Nose gets Smokey with air. So precise. Unreal crystalline structure and dazzling purity. Very young, very fresh bottle of this. My best! — 5 years ago

9.5

Strong and spicy and deep and complex. It is fruitier and more aromatic than scotch but also more elegant. Not sure Id pay hundreds for a bottle. Fruity palate with prunes, Corinth raisins and sticky toffee pudding. Palate: Dark chocolate and over-ripe plums. A little sultana character, cocoa butter and spice. Finish: SPICY, vanilla-led finish with all kinds of dark fruits. Hennessy XO if you want something stronger and dynamic; Remy Martin XO if you want a smooth and mellow ride. — 3 years ago

Perfectly balanced, this Slovenian merlot is all ripe black plum, blackberry, sultana, currant, mocha, with hints of mint and dark chocolate. Grippy but fairly integrated tannins lending to a pretty long and smooth finish. Superb — 7 years ago

Riper than any other heredia I've had. Stewed plum, tea, black cherry, beautifully long finish of raspberry, cranberry and some game. Must have been warm cause there's like some sultana and almost some heat — 8 years ago

9.1

At aprox. 22 usd/17 gbp, this wine is a real garbain.
Mature, intense and concentrated with a great complexity ranging from honey, dates, treacle, glue, sultana raisins, nut meg and vanilla.
The alcohol is there, but mellowed with time, acts as a lift for the aromas rather than being a burden.
With a vivid acidity, it is a real show of elegance and power that does wonders in food pairing!
