Score 91/100 · Drink 2022-2030, Eric Guido, Vinous, Feb 2021

The 2010 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico is deceptively fresh and floral at first, deepening further with time in the glass, as earthy minerals give way to savory cherry sauce and hints of camphor. This is silky, almost creamy in feel, with ripe red fruits and spices giving way to hints of licorice and tobacco. A coating of fine tannin lingers, along with notes of cheek-puckering tart blackberry and bitter baker’s chocolate.

For a 2010, this is still very fresh indeed, showcasing sour cherries, red plums, citrus, orange peel and grenadine. Very linear and tangy on the palate, but the muscular tannins provide depth and power. Medium-to full-bodied and medium-chewy on the vibrant finish. Beautifully crafted and expertly shaped. Flag-bearer for the modern style of Amarone. Drink now.
