Producer: Tommaso Bussola  
Region: ValpolicellaVenetoItaly  
Blend: 65% Corvina and Corvinone, 30% Rondinella, 5% Other varieties 
Year: 2016 

Vinous, 93 Points 

"The 2016 Amazon della Valpolicella Classico is spicy, with hints of sour citrus giving way to cocoa, dusty rose and cloves.  This is silky with a noticeable sweetness that is balanced by bright acidity, as ripe red berries and plums wash across the palate.  It leaves violet florals, creamy dark chocolate and a touch of spice while finishing long and lightly structured.  The 2016 is so drinkable; but at 17% ABV and 12.7 grams of sugar per liter, it’s a high-test Amazon, so enjoy it in moderation." 

Winemaker Notes:  

"Tommaso’s first goal every year is to make the best Amarone Classico possible. Because of Bussola’s demanding standards, production of each cuvée varies dramatically from vintage to vintage." 

Alcohol: 17%
