Score 93/100 · Drink 2013-2020, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Feb 2011

The 2005 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico TB possesses wonder inner perfume, mid-palate density and fabulous overall balance. Cinnamon, cloves, plums, black cherries and licorice are some of the nuances that emerge from this soft, enveloping Amarone. The plushness and generosity of the fruit is quite beautiful. The 2005 is also approachable with a minimum of cellaring.
