James Suckling: 95 Points
"Super, linear, modern-style Amarone with a lovely blend of fresh and dried fruit on the nose and palate. Focused spice adds to the complexity. Full-bodied with slightly firm tannins that are coated with spice, bright fruit and minerals. Focused and long, but still tight. This reads 16.5%, but there’s certainly no alcohol alert on the nose or palate. Excellent quality here, but wait. This is for the cellar, at least until 2024."

“The 2015 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva Villa Rizzardi is dark and imposing in the glass, grumbling up with ashen crushed stone, tobacco and black cherries offset by a hint of candied citrus. This is velvety and weighty, almost glycerol, yet it remains cool and collected, with mineral-tinged red berries and sweet inner florals. It tapers off long, leaving the palate drenched in opulent ripe red and blue fruits, as hints of dark chocolate and tobacco linger.”
