Tasting notes

Fine bottle with top fill. Deep brown-red colour. Port-like nose. Kirsch, volatile acidity, raisins, alcohol. Some developed notes like leather. With air it shows some complexity. Tastes quite equal to an old traditionally styled amarone. Powerful in the mouth. Dry and soft style with noticeable alcohol. Lots of fruit. Very warm style. Kirsch, raisins, leather, VA. Big, but not deep. Low acids and little tannins in the back. Lots of alcohol. Interesting wine that in no way is too old. This seems to be be able to take on many more years. This is definitely a style of wine that we don’t see often anymore.
