A single-vineyard Amarone from just 4ha, the Il Bosco vineyard is nestled in the heart of Valpolicella Classico. The grapes loose 30-40 percent of their weight through drying for 4 months resulting in a dramatic, powerful wine. The wine is rich with concentrated flavors of preserved fruit, particularly cherries. Aged in a combination of French and Slavonian oak barrels for 2+ years then in bottle for several more, the bouquet is layered with hints of baking spices, cocoa, and toasted nuts through the long finish. It is a majestic, classic wine of the world that while approachable now has the power and pedigree to age for several decades.
I have enjoyed these wines very much - in particular I liked the Belle Vignes which was rich and very flavoursome
The Cabra Cega was a particularly easy drinking quaffing wine.
Still have another 2 bottles left to sample

Great
Great selection, great taste, great value, fast delivery
Quality is consistent. Deeper bouquet and flavor than most Cali Zins. The Earth tones come thru beautifully about two years from Vintage. Wonderful
Red to contemplate on its own or with good food.
