Tedeschi Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Capitel Monte Olmi 2004



Clean wine with a dark ruby colour with smoked aromas. It has also aromas like smashed red fruit, dried cherries and coffee. It's a very complex wine, structured and with a great finish.

Cicinis Collio 2007



Cristaline wine, almost like water. It has a strange aroma like rotten fruit although it has a moisture with sweet tropical fruits and vanilla. It's very elegant in the mouth and has an excellent acidity. It's a medium structure wine with very nice finish.
