Tenuta Sant'Antonio Campo dei Gigli Amarone Della Valpolicella 2015 Review
This wine is wacky. It smells like an intense espresso macchiato made from over-roasted beans. There is a balsamic and soy sauce vibe as well. It has so much alcohol it will buzz your nose hairs. No meal can pair with this wine, but some very pungent cheeses may match the intensity. It may need a few more years.
