Marco is part of the Speri family, and had a vision for a refined Amarone which carries the alcohol in a light and effortless way. A post-modern style, this is slim, trim and pure. It shows aromatic precision – rose petals and camomile on the nose. On the palate there is rosemary and basil and pronounced leafy vibrancy. Almost saline on the finish, this is an airy, herbal and delightful Amarone to challenge tradition. It’s also the best 2013 I tasted.
