Michele Castellani, Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOCG Campo Casalin

The color is garnet red. The aroma is reminiscent of fruit jam, plum, spices and leather. It has a smooth and elegant structure, with a slight tannin. The taste is very complex, pleasantly rich and dry, with just the right amount of acidity.
