AMARONE DELLA VALPOLICELLA CLASSICO 2015 DOCG |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
TOMMASI |
This is one of 68 items (125 releases) that was not going to be presented for evaluation under new LCBO policies. A REPEAT of the 2015 that last appeared in Vintages (***) on November 9, 2019 at $49.95 and was Recommended. Here is my previous note: Very deep intense red colour. Intense, spicy, baked plum-apple nose with some cedar-sandalwood notes along with a touch of mocha-chocolate. Dry, medium to medium-full bodied, quite well structured, slightly spicy, bright, warm, intense, very ripe, rounded, plum-cherry flavours with a lingering, sandalwood-tinged, slightly earthy finish. Has 15% alcohol and 10 g/L residual sugar. |

TASTING NOTE: Extremely attractive aromas of dried fruit, prunes and sweet almonds follow through to a medium to full body, soft, juicy fruit and a flavorful finish. Shows depth and beauty on the finish. Balanced and lovely now. Drink now. Score - 92 (James Suckling, jamessuckling.com, Nov. 7, 2019) |
