1988 Bertani Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOCG Spanish it's quite simply a magnificent"A wonderful wine. Prune, bitter chocolate, smoked meat and black pepper. Full and dense and fine. Long and forceful, yet time has transcended any sense of sweetness or heaviness. A fantastic Amarone that is uncannily akin to a fine Bordeaux, accentuated by a tad of rusticity at the finish that doesn't, however, impede its long flow. Drink now." 95 100, James Suckling
