The consignor was introduced to these wines through a former client he had worked with, marking his first experience with fine wine. Given the opportunity, he chose to purchase them for personal enjoyment. As he no longer resides at the property where the wines were originally stored, he made the decision to consign them. Prior to their transfer to Iron Gate, the bottles were stored in a temperature-controlled environment.
1991 Giuseppe Quintarelli Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Superior has the score of 92 from Wine Spectator and the tasting note -Here's an example of why Amarone is unique in the world of wine. A beauty, from the deep, espresso-like color and smoky, exotic aromas to the overripe berry and botrytis flavors. Glycerin-like in texture, yet muscular and high in alcohol, with a lingering finish.
