It's the month of Italian wines at our house. I'm looking for an Amarone that is drinking well right now for an unpcoming dinner. The following are what's available to me, with prices in US$ (all are within my budget for this special occasion). Can someone direct me to the best choice(s)?
1997 Agricola Arana Amarone della Valpolicella ($63) 1998 Allegrini Amarone (US$57) 1997 Cesari "il Bosco" Amarone della Valpolicella ($46) 1997 Corte Sant'Alda Amarone (US$59) 1999 Le Salette Amarone "Marega" (US$45) 1997 Masi Amarone Classico Costasera (US$44) 1997 Masi Amarone Classico "Serego Alighieri Vaio Armaron" (US$54) 1997 Masi Amarone Vaio ($46) 1997 Monte Daniela Amarone Classico ($45) 1998 Nicolis Amarone "Ambrosan" (US$45) 1998 Trabucchi Amarone della Valpolicella (US$50) 1998 Venturini Amarone Classico ($42)I also might be able to get the 1997 Tenuta Sant'Antonio Campo dei Gigli Amarone ($54). I know very little about these wines, other than that the honoree will appreciate a nice one. Thanks very much for any input.
