Farina Amarone

Farina Amarone 1998. This was the first time I got to enjoy a glass of amarone. Up until this point, I had had a couple of samples, but bottles start at $35, so it has always been above budget. I had the opportunity to try a bottle of 14 year old amarone today. It was decanted for about an hour before drinking. It is a big wine, and at 14.5% alcohol you can smell it, mixed with a fruity scent. The taste was smooth but high in alcohol too. JC84
