ready-keep2012 Amarone Classico della Valpolicella, Monte dei Ragni, Fumane, Veneto

A complex, rich and impressive wine, this Amarone was bottled in 2016 – giving it time to relax and integrate. The bouquet is deep and concentrated, with notes of wild cherry, plum and balsamic herbs. The palate is smooth and full, with savoury notes of game, tobacco leaf and leather. As with all Zeno’s wines, however, there is incredible resolve and freshness despite the classical Amarone sweetness and alcohol – resulting in a superbly drinkable masterstroke that will also stand the test of time. Drink now to 2030.
