DAL FORNO ROMANO AMARONE DELLA VALPOLICELLA 2006

Italy, Veneto.

$395.00 at LCBO

That was the best Amarone I've tasted so far!
Deep dark ruby color, opaque.
On the nose rich  fruit aromas, flavors of sweet nuts, dried fruit, tobacco.
On the palate flavors are so concentrated!
Syrupy almost, sweet cherries, chocolate, baking spices, coffee. Full bodied, balanced, dry with high alcohol which I could not feel at all.
Long, delicious finish with floral notes.
