2015, Allegrini Amarone, Fieramonte Classico Riserva

Blend: Corvina Veronese, Corvinone, Rondinella, Oseleta.

Fresh, appealing nose of blackberry aniseed and dark chocolate aromas. Structured, juicy palate of sweet cherries and wild plums. Wild berry coulis and spicy finish. Elegant and well poised. 93 Andrea Briccarello, Decanter.

The 2015 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva Fieramonte is totally captivating, with a mentholated bouquet that mixes cedar spice box with cloves, dried blood orange and cinnamon-dusted black cherries. This envelopes the palate, elegant and seamlessly silky, as a core of racy acidity perfectly balances a dense wave of ripe red fruits. It lingers impossibly long, with framing tannins that punctuate the wine nicely without slowing its momentum. The 2015 Fieramonte is gorgeous today but also packed full of potential. What's more, there's no shame in bringing this beautifully sculpted Amarone to the dinner table. 96 Eric Guido, Vinous (2022).
