2020 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico, Villa Borghetti, Veneto, Italy

The Villa Borghetti Amarone perfectly expresses its terroir: it has a broad nose, with intense forthright scents of black berries and cherries, spicy tones that are reminiscent of chocolate and freshly roasted-coffee, as well as sweetish vanilla-like notes. On the palate it is warm and well-balanced, with gentle tannins. On the finish the typical notes of semi-dried grapes emerge.
