Ca' La Bionda Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 2016 (3 Fl.)

Galloni: There's a purity of fruit that you seldom find from the category embodied in the 2016 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico, which has it in spades. Crushed cherries, strawberries, dusty dried roses, cinnamon and hints of dark chocolate can be found throughout. However, this is not a rich and hedonistic wine. Instead, it’s lifted and vibrant, with a core of saline-minerals and savory spices that keeps you coming back for more. While only lightly structured, the 2016 has the balance to excel through medium-term cellaring, even though it’s already so easy to like today. Gorgeous. Drinking Window 2022 - 2032. 93/100
