The Tedeschi 2013 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva Capitel Monte Olmi is rich and fully intense in a manner only achieved with air-dried fruit in which each cluster is dehydrated to offer more pulp, sugar and alcohol. The Tedeschi family does a great job, and they make some of the most robust and age-worthy bottles you can find. This is a blend of 30% Corvina, 30% Corvinone, 30% Rondinella and 10% complementary grapes. Aging takes place in Slavonian oak casks and lasts for 48 months. The wine opens to densely extracted blackberry and plum and plenty of exotic spice with tar, cardamom and cola. Production in this vintage is limited to 9,000 bottles.
