"The cedar riffs of French oak segue to bitter cherry, raspberry bon bon, alpine herb and Pastis, marking the finish. This is a slick, contemporary Amarone on one hand, without pushing any buttons of winemaking intrusiveness, on the other. Another red here that reminds me of a ripe, chunkier Pinot. Beautifully transparent, deft of touch with chiffon-like of structure. I like the style. The oak, used to beautiful effect. 'Medium drying' of the fruit (2 mths), in a highly ventilated mountainous setting, is the key. This mitigates any malevolent botrytic development. The end result is floral, lifted, juicy, sappy and while concentrated, so very fresh. Drink or hold."

"Though better known for their exceptional Soave, brothers Claudio and Sandro Gini also produce red wines from their Tenuta Scajari at Cazzano di Tramigna. Their Amarone Monte Serea is a youthful ruby colour with smoky grey/violet shadings. Very scented, it displays aromas of dried and candied fig, cranberry, cherry and orange peel. Full and ripe with sure-footed, lush flavours of fresh and dried fruit, its lovely acidity helps maintain impressive freshness, while a gentle, nuanced finish enhances this really stylish wine. Delightful."
