Tommasi De Buris Amarone Riserva 2010 (96 VM)
The 2010 Amarone della Valpolicella Riserva De Buris pulls you close with an intense and spicy mix of sour citrus, tart cherries, dusty rose and dark, dark chocolate. I like the lift here, coming across as intensely floral and with an herbal twang that balances its rich fruits. This is silky yet vertical, as cooling acids add balance, saturating the palate with intense spice while becoming quite floral and mineral toward the close. It’s youthfully dense and with amazing potential, leaving the palate coated in fine tannins, nearly silty, along with hints of licorice and bitter spice. The 2010 is simply gorgeous, and with the potential to go two to three decades or more.

De Buris is the fourth generation of the Tommasi family's most personal expression of the Valpolicella Classica. An Amarone Riserva sourced from the La Groletta cru, it is led by Giancarlo Tommasi and built on the full weight of the family's winemaking knowledge. Unhurried in every step, from selection and drying through extended aging, De Buris is a wine that honors the tradition of the territory while reflecting the ambitions of a new generation.
