2016 Monte Olmi Riserva Amarone

Vininformation

95 point - Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate: "One of the top wines in the Tedeschi portfolio, the 2016 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva Capitel Monte Olmi brings the intensity threshold up significantly in terms of fruit weight, power and alcohol (measured at 17% here). Dark fruit and plum are folded into candied fruit and cherry liqueur. The tannins are present, for sure, but expertly integrated to show no bitterness or astringency. In fact, the mouthfeel is probably the best and most unique feature of this wine."

94 point - Wine Spectator: This rich red nods at Amarone's traditional style with its dark focus and notes of stemmy herbs, iron and fresh earth, but the juicy core of black plum and cherry reduction flavors, the supple, chalky tannins and the overall integration and balance show the precision and pleasure of a modern approach. Long, lovely finish. Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella and Oseleta. Drink now through 2036."

I glasset fremstår vinen med Amaronens klassiske teglstensrøde farve. Duften er utrolig intens, mættet med nuancer af modne bær, tørrede frugter og et strej af bittermandel. Smagen er ekstremt rig og intens - en eksplosion af frugt - og eftersmagen varer over et minut. En fantastisk Amarone-oplevelse.
