The 2015 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Acinatico opens to a heavy bouquet that is redolent of chewy black cherry, cigar box and dried orange infused with clove and other spices. The grapes are dehydrated for 120 days, and the blending formula here sees 75% Corvina Veronese, 20% Rondinella and 5% Molinara. The alcohol clocks in at 16.5%, and you definitely feel that power and heat. This is a hearty and full-bodied wine with 40,000 bottles made.
