Intense floral aromas pour out of the glass on this super-pretty Amarone. As the wine opens, the ripe plum, blueberry and cassis aromas spin in the glass, with a touch of sweet tobacco in the background. The mouthfilling wine is hemmed in with fine tannins and enough acidity to keep lush, dominant fruit flavors at bay. An earthiness at the end keeps you interested in how this wine will evolve next. Drink now–2035. Jeff Porter

What Is Blind Tasting?

All tastings reported in the Buying Guide are performed blind. Typically, products are tasted in peer-group flights of from 5-8 samples. Reviewers may know general information about a flight to provide context—vintage, variety or appellation—but never the producer or retail price of any given selection. When possible, products considered flawed or uncustomary are retasted.
