Fasoli Gino Amarone Alteo
1What distinguishes Amarone from other red wines is the fact that the grapes are dried over the winter prior to pressing. As you’d expect, the drying process concentrates the flavours even further and what you end up with in your glass is a delicious, mouth-filling wine with a list of flavours that go on and on and on. Soaked prunes, dried figs, blackcurrant, liquorice, leather, spice, caramel… and that’s just for starters. Exemplary winemaking, this is a vinous luxury that can be stored for years to come, or enjoyed now with a full-flavoured dish.
An absolute smash hit at our annual wine tasting.

Reviews
United KingdomI don’t do tasting notes, finish etc, but this is the finest Italian wine I have ever tasted. It’s also very powerful; like rich Valpolicella, with the consistency of Port!
