Method and source check

We check multiple rating platforms for every wine where accessible: Vivino, Wine-Searcher, Wine Spectator, Decanter, James Suckling, Robert Parker Wine Advocate. Only verified scores matching the offered vintage or NV are shown and included.

Ratings are shown from 3.7/5 only when at least one contributing source confirms 10 reviews for this exact vintage or NV. Counts from different platforms are not added together.

5 exact platform scores are weighted equally. Native 99- and 100-point scales are normalized from 50→1 to their own maximum→5 (99→5 or 100→5); display and filtering use one decimal. Aggregator and critic-platform scores can partly overlap.

Description

Zýmē Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOCG 2018 is a prestigious red wine from the famous Valpolicella region. The wine is made from 40% Corvina, 30% Corvinone, 15% Rondinella, 10% Oseleta and 5% Croatina.

The wine has a deep ruby red color with garnet reflections. The bouquet is intense and complex, with aromas of ripe red fruit, candied cherries, plums, sweet spices, dark chocolate, tobacco and balsamic notes.

On the palate it is full and velvety, with elegant tannins and flavors of dark berries, cocoa and vanilla, perfectly balanced by freshness and a mineral finish with pepper undertones. The grapes are naturally air-dried on wooden racks for 3-4 months, followed by fermentation and at least 5 years of aging in large Slavonian oak barrels.

Ratings 2018: Falstaff 96/100, James Suckling 96/100, Luca Maroni 97/100, Wine Spectator 93/100. Ideal with roasted meat, game, braised meat, aged cheeses and truffle dishes.
