Waterproof Monte Faustino L'Amarone del Maestro Fornaser 2013

Region: Veneto, Italy

Varietal: 70% Corvina and Corvinone Veronese, 25% Rondinella, 5% Croatina and Oseleta

Tasting Notes: The L'Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva del Maestro Fornaser is seductive, with a display of rich cherry sauce and baked plums complemented by clove, allspice and hints of candied citrus. This is velvety and unapologetically full-bodied, yet it maintains perfect balance with a contrasting blend of tart red and black berries, bitter coffee and mocha. It’s seamless in feel, elegant and harmonious, tapering off to notes of raspberry coulis and sweet inner florals.
