We usually carry the La Rosta special bottling but this is better all around. Typical Amarone nose of figs, prunes, tobacco and layers of other nuance. Lighter than many Amarone, definitely modern style with fresher fruit and great acid. The palate tastes like the nose promises. Where many are cloying to the point that one glass is plenty, this bottle is very drinkable. Would pair well with duck breast, charcuterie, roast quail, and other light game. Delicious.
