Degani Amarone della Valpolicella Classico La Rosta 2019

This powerful, full-bodied Italian red wine opens with a complex bouquet of dried figs, black cherries, and dark chocolate. On the majestic palate, a dense, velvety texture delivers concentrated flavors of raisin and sweet baking spices balanced by smooth, warming tannins.

Food Pairing: Magnificent with slow-braised beef short ribs, wild boar ragù, roasted venison, or long-aged Parmigiano-Reggiano and blue cheeses.

93 Points - James Suckling 

A nicely structured Amarone with plenty of fruit-compote character that blends well with the spiciness from the oak. Full-bodied with a velvety texture and plenty going on through the long finish. Drink or hold.
