"Dense and delicious, this unfolds with aromas of black fruit, plum cake and baking spices. The rich palate offers black plum, blackberry and black cherry alongside layers of chocolate, clove, vanilla and black licorice. Despite its weight, it's balanced, with assertive but round tannins. Drink 2016-2028."

"This Amarone tastes very sweet and mature. It's a spice- and oak-driven wine that tastes older than it really is because of its resiny patina of molasses and pine and austere flavors of dried prunes and raisins. It does offer thick concentration and extra sweetness on the close."

90 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Santi Proemio" from the vintage 2003 on 01.01.2007 with 90 of 100 points.
"Here is a refreshing approach to Amarone only because this wine is not overextracted or concentrated. It charges forward with a leaner, more elegant approach that allows distinct berry, spice and crushed black pepper notes to appear without too much power or weight. The mouthfeel is smooth, caressing and leaves lasting sweet berry flavors."

"Leuchtendes, klares Rubinrot; sehr klare, einprägsame Nase mit Noten nach Nelken und Zimt, dann viel reife Kirsche, leicht pfeffrig; zeigt sich am Gaumen rund und mit guter Fülle, viel feinkörniges Tannin, saftig, mit klarer Frucht, anhaltend und klar."

91 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Santi Proemio" from the vintage 1996 on 01.01.2001 with 91 of 100 points.
"Wonderful flavors of dark fruits, minerals and licorice comprise this brawny red. There's also a nice toasty element, like roasted nuts, which is probably a result of new oak aging that brings added complexity. The alcohol is in balance. This fine wine will be best enjoyed in 2003 and beyond."
