Tasting notes

Red colour with browning rim. Nose shows dried and a little oxidized fruit. Some hints of cherries, old woods and spirit. Quite powerful amarone in the mouth. But shows a lack of fruit. Dried, oxidized fruits. Old woods. Rustic amarone and lacking depth. Medium acidity and highly noticable alcohol in the finish. Not balanced. Drink up now. Very disappointing. Perhaps there are better bottles out there.
