The 2018 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico is understated, with a smoldering mix of dried black cherries and steeped plums complicated by shavings of dark chocolate and hints of clove. This is seductively round and soothing, with velvety textures and masses of mineral-tinged red and blue fruits, all guided by vibrant acidity. The 2018 tapers off long and nearly salty, with gently grippy tannins and a bitter twang of exotic spice. Through it all, freshness is expertly maintained.
