The 2008 Amarone della Valpolicella captures the essence of this gorgeous Amarone vintage. Sage, rosemary, black cherries, plums, menthol and tobacco all meld together as the 2008 begins to open up. Sweet, perfumed and beautifully silky, the 2008 impresses for its impeccable balance. The tannins and underlying structure are there, but they are nearly buried by the wine's pure concentration. This is a fabulous showing from Prà.
