Tasting notes
With 15,670 bottles produced, the 2013 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Campolongo di Torbe is slightly more slender and streamlined (compared to the Mazzano), but you are still getting a wine of enormous density, concentration and sheer power (with a 16% alcohol content). The bouquet is redolent of baked fruit, kirsch and blackberry preserves. The wine also shows a slightly savory side with cured tobacco leaf and crushed clove.

The 2013 Amarone Classico Campolongo di Torbe is aromatically stunning, wafting up with a perfumed mix of lavender and violet before giving way to crushed plums and wet stone. This is pure elegance on the palate; a salty flourish complements its ripe red and black fruits, accentuated by balsamic spice. The 2013 finishes lightly structured and with outstanding length, as traces of dark chocolate slowly fade. This is a fantastic edition of Campolongo di Torbe.
