98 points Eric Guido (Vinous): "The 2019 Amarone della Valpolicella seduces with a darkly alluring blend of violet pastille and autumnal spice, giving way to crushed blueberries and a dusting of cocoa. It displays depths of ripe red berry fruits inflected by nuances of blood orange and mocha, while a core of zesty acidity maintains fantastic balance. Staining and long, it is also gently tannic, leaving a tart citrus tinge that adds a classic bitter bite. The 2019 is harmonious to the core, with a modest 4 grams of residual sugar. Fantastic. Drink 2026-2042 (Sep 2025)"

Importer notes: The grapes are dried for 2 months before they are pressed and fermented. Following this, fermentation takes place in stainless steel vats, with the end of fermentation taking place in barrique (altogether for 30-40 days). Malolactic fermentation is completed and the wine is aged in small French barrels (50% new) for 26 months, followed by 24 months in the bottle.
