Masi 2013 Amarone "Campolongo di Torbe" 750ml

With 15,670 bottles produced, the 2013 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Campolongo di Torbe is slightly more slender and streamlined (compared to the Mazzano), but you are still getting a wine of enormous density, concentration and sheer power (with a 16% alcohol content). The bouquet is redolent of baked fruit, kirsch and blackberry preserves. The wine also shows a slightly savory side with cured tobacco leaf and crushed clove.
