Favorite Amarone?

[Botafogo]

The Official WINE EXPO Classification for Amarones (arrived at by getting shit faced tasting them at a BBQ in Jerry's Honor 'cause we missed his wake) is:

The God Kings who walk on water and front the band:

Quintarelli
Dal Forno Romano

The Ike-ettes (or maybe the I-threes?) who provide tight harmony:

Allegrini
Villabellini
I Castei
Nicolas (especially the Ambrosan)
Speri
Venturini
Trabucchi

The Rock Steady Riddim Section:

Boscaini (look for the Cà di Loi bottling)
Remo Farina
Fabiano
Zenato (Sergio Zenato Riserva)

AND, if you like Amarone and also Barolo, check out Sforzato (wines made Amarone style from air dried Nebbiolo in the Valtellina)
