Speri Vigneto Monte Sant’Urbano Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 2009

The 2009 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Vigneto Monte Sant’Urbano is a monumental achievement that shows what Amarone can do in a great vintage like 2009. There’s enormous power and substance here, backed by luscious prune, blackberry, cherry liqueur, cola and chewing tobacco. This single vineyard blend is 70% Corvina and Corvinone, 25% Rondinella and 5% Molinara. This wine is built to last. Drink 2015-2025. Score – 94. (Monica Larner, robertparker.com, Oct. 30, 2013)
