James Suckling (97)

A decadent nose of treacle tart, chocolate, tar, tons of black fruit such as blackberries and mulberries and even ash and licorice. A dense, layered mouthfeel makes for a full-bodied palate that's explosive yet somehow so refined and pretty all at the same time. The finish goes on and on. Incredible now, but better to wait for this giant to settle well into 2020.

Vinous (94)

The 2012 Amabile del Cerè is flat-out stunning, boasting a seductive display of baked apple, fig paste, mint, spiced orange and hints of burnt sugar. It’s weighty and textural yet full of vibrant energy, as floral-laced peach, honey and hints of buttercream give way to candied citrus and a note of brown sugar. This is unrelenting pleasure and opulence in a glass, as layer upon layer of contrasting sweet and sour notes repeatedly thrills the senses. It lingers for well over a minute with hints of tropical fruit and florals. The Amabile del Cere uses the same mix of Garganega, Trebbiano Toscano, Sauvignon, Chardonnay and Saorin as the Bianco Secco, yet it’s air-dried prior to vinification. It’s only produced in years when Quintarelli feels that the Bianco Secco is strong enough to stand on its own without the addition of the Amabile’s fruit. The 2012 should not be missed.

Vinous (94)

It’s rare that you take in the aromas of an Amarone and the first thing that comes to mind is how wonderfully fresh and perfumed it is, but that’s exactly what you’ll experience from the 2012 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico from Quintarelli. Sour cherries are complicated by notes of rose, sweet spice and hints of cedar and mint. It’s deeply textural yet precise, with a polished and pure display of purple-tinged red fruit contrasted by zesty acids and a slight herbal twang. Remarkably feminine and undeniably elegant, with a slow-mounting structure that sneaks up on you through the finale. This gentle giant tapers off long and floral, only hinting at the depths that further cellaring will bring.

Discover the Secondo Marco Amarone della Valpolicella 2012, a sublime embodiment of Italian winemaking mastery. With poise and elegance, this Venetian wine expresses the richness of the Amarone style, a decadent expression of the indigenous Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara grape varieties. Founder Marco Speri exemplifies the meeting of tradition and innovation in Valpolicella, preserving the esteemed legacy of his family winemaking while carving out a distinct niche. The grapes undergo meticulous drying to intensify aromas and flavours, a process known as 'appassimento'. The result? A wine of profound complexity and balance, boasting full-bodied dark fruit nuances paired with an enticing hint of spice and fine tannins. Secondo Marco Amarone della Valpolicella 2012 is not just a wine, it's a poetic narration of its lavish terroir. Suitable for ageing, yet deliciously approachable in its youth, this wine is a testament to the sublime potential of Valpolicella. Savour the excellence of Secondo Marco.
