Tedeschi Amarone della Valpolicella Marne 180 – 2017*
Richly aromatic on the nose with savory notes of cigar box, ground coffee and smoke, a fragrant thread that transitions on the palate to underscore a pure beam of crème de cassis, damson plum preserve and olive tapenade flavors. This silky red is full-bodied yet harmonious, with fine-grained tannins emerging to firm the finish. Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella and Rossignola. Drink now through 2030. 12,500 cases made, 600 cases imported. —AN
