Bid on this 4-bottle lot of 1996 Allegrini Amarone della Valpolicella Classico (95RP). Wine Advocate: "Very impressive, an unquestionably fine dry red. The outstanding, dark purple-colored 1996 Amarone offers a knock-out nose of wood charcoal intermixed with black truffles, melted asphalt, blackberries, and roast beef. Its low acidity and gorgeously ripe fruit provide immediate accessibility. (RP)" (08/2000)

08/2000Notes
3 Glasses Gambero Rosso for this spectacular wine. Gambero Rosso is Italy's leading food and wine publication, for which the highest rating--three glasses--is a rare achievement. Aged to perfection, this classic Amarone offers layers of developing fruit and spice aromas in a stunningly dense and luscious body. It is a wine for cold evenings in front of the fireplace when you have ample time to savor its complexity... ideally between bites of aged Parmigiano-Reggiano.
