Bussola's 2004 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico TB possesses remarkable harmony and poise. At first the wine is rather brooding, but with air turns more delicate, revealing layers of tar, licorice, toasted oak and black fruits. The wine offers notable clarity and finessed tannins than frame the fruit from start to finish. Although the new oak needs some bottle age to recede a bit, this is clearly a remarkable example of modern-style Amarone at its finest .
Wine Spectator: 90 Points
Shows aromas of sweet currant and raisin, with hints of mineral, flowers and cedar. Full-bodied, with a dense core of sweet fruit and mineral, fine, firm tannins and a long, evolving finish that's slightly sugary. This is full of youthful energy.
