Monte del Frá 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:
