Lot 88 Details
BERTANI AMARONE DELLA VALPOLICELLA CLASSICO 2004

Veneto.
u. 4 x 1 cm. 1 x stained label.

The 2004 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico is flat-out gorgeous. Why can’t all the Bertani wines be this good? The 2004 is a superb, elegant Amarone graced with expressive dark red fruit, flowers, tobacco and spices, all supported by finessed, silky tannins. Sweet roses, tar and licorice are woven into the layered, sublime finish. Deceptively medium in body, the 2004 has the stuffing to age well for decades. This is a terrific showing from Bertani. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2034. December 2011 WA 94

4 bts.    per lot $800 - $1,000

Realised: $2,160
