This was one of the most underrated vintages in recent years. When the 2008s were released, I remember my tastings showed uneven results. Now with time passed, 2008 is a vintage for those who love classic Amarone. The Bertani 2008 Bertani Amarone della Valpolicella is elegant and subtle. It delivers its dried fruit aromas in such a pretty manner. It opens to dark cherry and blackberry but moves over to ashy, almost ethereal mineral tones. To the palate, it shows firm tannin and good structure. Drink 2014-2034. —M.L.
