Monte del Frà Lena di Mezzo Scarnocchio Amarone del Valpolicella Classico 2017
Verona, Veneto, ItalyThis shows a lifted, raisonated nose, reflecting 120 days of drying, with wild berries, fig, toasted walnut, chocolate, dried florals, and leather. It's complex, tertiary, and savoury, with moderate intensity and concentration, on a frame of fine, silky tannins. There is a certain elegance here, still within the paradigm of Amarone, and it's easy to see yourself pouring a second glass thanks to the relative lithe and integrated 15.5% alcohol.Tasted: 20 November 2022Tasted by: Prices:

Monte del Frà Lena di Mezzo Scarnocchio Amarone del Valpolicella Classico 2017
Verona, Veneto, ItalyA blend of 80% corvina (corvina veronese and corvinone) and 20% rondinella, this powerful wine boasts the classic Amarone aromas of highly concentrated dried fruit and sweet spices along with a richly dense texture. Prune and dried fig are interlaced with earthy and sweet nutmeg and cinnamon, and a touch of balsamic. The long finish with lingering flavours of bittersweet chocolate and savoury earthiness emphasises the hedonistic impression of the wine.Tasted: 25 March 2023Tasted by: Prices:
