Amarone Montefante Rsv (Farina) 2017

Dried berry, red brick and bark character to the nose. Full-bodied with spicy fruit bound in lightly firm tannin and oak, producing a long finish. This feels very young and needs to unwind a bit more to bring out the complexity that lies under the surface. But it’s there, so worth waiting for. A sturdy red, built for the long term. Try from 2025. (jamessuckling.com,March 20, 2023)
