Red wine
Monte dall’Ora, Stropa Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 2012
RRP £90
A very artisan producer, and a full, rich and bitter Amarone. An inviting bouquet with mature notes of warm stable coupled with milk chocolate and shades of caramel. A seductive slide onto the palate showing richness, freshness and bitterness. Complex palate of buttery fennel, a bite of black chocolate, sour cherry and sharp green peppercorn are layered in an intriguing mid-palate which slips into a spicy and well sustained finish.
