Nicolis Amarone Della Valpolicella Classico 2015

Veneto, Italy Wine Enthusiast 93 points! Nicolis Amarone della Valpolicella Classico is a classic red wine gem made from the Veneto region in the northeast of Italy. The Nicolis name sums up the history of an entire family. Each member has a mission that revolves around the earth and wine. Giancarlo focuses painstaking attention on the vineyards, while Giuseppe ensures that the winemaking is expert and natural. Nicolis Amarone is a beautiful deep dark ruby red which gradually turns into garnet. Powerful and aristocratic nose of ripe fruit, jam, sensations of cocoa, walnut, tobacco and leather. Elegant and powerful wine with a distinct spicy bouquet and with unique flavors. It shows an impressive balance between volume and smoothness, warmth and crispness, austerity and richness. “Enticing aromas of violet, tobacco and black-skinned berry emerge from the glass. The savory, full-bodied palate offers blackberry jam, licorice and white pepper alongside fine-grained tannins. Drink through 2029.”–Wine Enthusiast, 93 points!
