Allegrini Amarone 2003 ()

Saturday, June 7th, 2008

29467883 Allegrini Amarone 2003 ()


Allegrini are one of the 'famous five' Amarone producers. They produce lush complex wines which carry their weight with considerable grace. With a compelling nose of smoked meat, black cherry and violets the palate is thickly textured with layer after layer of chocolate, fig and exotic spices. These wines provide a unique vinous experience and compared to the Dal Fornos of this world this is a bargain!

The Chardonnay and Viognier grapes for this blend were fermented separately, with the intention of maximizing the characteristics of each in the final wine. The Chardonnay spent 4 months in oak prior to blending in order to give body without compromising the delicate characteristics of the Viognier. The result is delicious, with mango, pineapple and vanilla characters and a long finish
