Tenuta Sant'Antonio Amarone Lilium Est Riserva 2010

Colour

Impenetrable ruby red.

Bouquet

It is very intense, broad and fine. Instantly some evidences are balsamic scents , almost iodine, carried by the remarkable alcohol power, giving way later to the characteristical aroma of ripe cherries, plums, berries, spiced with star anise, cinnamon, cardamom, black pepper, vanilla and ginger. Tertiary perfumes of cocoa, chocolate, goudron, almonds, toasted hazelnut and pipe tobacco.

Flavour

In the mouth it is certainly dry, warm and soft, well supported by considerable acidity, flavor and round tannicity. Balanced, very persistent and fine. Certainly ready, a wine with strong shoulders to face time.

Pairing

Barbecued red meat, roast beef, braised meat, sliced beef or horsemeat, roasts with highly-flavoured sauces, furred and feathered game, hard and mature cheeses.
