James Suckling named Bertani Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 2015 his Wine of the Year for 2024, scoring it 100 points. Bertani has made Amarone since 1857, ages it in large Slavonian oak and releases it many years late. The 2015 was one of the two best vintages of the century.
Great experience - my wife and I went to the wine shop and asked about the tasting - they brought us to the tasting room in the back and we have a very fun and informative wine tasting! Small bites and a couple of great wine flights - would do again!
Incredibly helpful and generous staff. Had half an hour due to work obligations and wanted to enjoy some Amarone. Lady behind the counter engaged me with no snobbery or disdain for my acknowledgement of looking for accessible wines. Will visit again...if I get the chance!
I stopped in here with very little Italian wine knowledge. I left with a great experience, lots of helpful information, and a souvenir to bring home. There is a wine tasting room and a bottle shop. I did a tasting and then bought a bottle of my favorite to take home. Great spot, staff was super engaging and helpful. Thanks!
A grand wine store who ships internationally at a reasonable price. A great selection of wine with an emphasis on the Amarone varietal. They have a very nicely selected wine tasting in the attached restaurant. Highly recommended wine tasting and the food also is worth a trip back for dinner. Will be returning here in the future for sure and will be shopping in their online store in the meantime.
