A refined, single-vineyard Amarone, the “Il Bosco” 2018 opens with an expressive bouquet of ripe cherry, blackberry and dried dark fruits, layered with chocolate, sweet spices and hints of tobacco and cured meat. On the palate, it is medium- to full-bodied, velvety and warm, showing concentrated forest fruits, cocoa and subtle savoury herbs, supported by fine, polished tannins and a structured, lingering finish. There is a hallmark Amarone bittersweet edge on the close, adding tension and elegance to its richness, while the overall style remains balanced, complex and approachable despite its power. Ideal with braised beef, slow-cooked lamb, game meats and rich ragù-based pasta, where the wine’s depth and structure mirror the intensity of the dish. It also pairs beautifully with aged cheeses (Parmigiano Reggiano, Pecorino) or as a post-dinner contemplative wine.
