Pietro Clementi 2005 – Amarone della Valpolicella Classico

The nose is racy, elegant and offers power (full of finesse/control), intensity (full of elegance). It reveals notes of cookef griotte, cherry, small notes of wild strawberry associated with small touches of violet plum, violet, rose petal as well as fine hints of liquorice, tobacco, a discreet muddy hint, very discreet hints of pepper and an imperceptible hint of mushroom. The palate s fruity, racy, elegant, delicate, beautifully defined and offers gourmandize, a beautiful acidulous frame, precision, tension as well as beautiful control of the fruit, power. On the palate this wine expresses notes of cooked cherry, pulpy/acidulous cassis, small notes of wild strawberry associated with small touches of cocoa/chocolate, a subtle hint of balsamic, very discreet hints of pepper, rose petal, liquorice, caramelized hazelnut and an imperceptible hint of cigar/underwood. A beautiful persistence.
