2002 De Feudis Amarone della Valpolicella Classico

[hotwine]

WW, according to Larousse, the red wine styles of the Valpolicella DOC include basic Valpolicella, Valpolicella Classico, Valpolicella ripasso. Recioto della Valpolicella, and Valpolicella Amarone. The Palazzo is ripasso, the de Feudis is Amarone. The descriptors are similar, with the Amarone being a more robust jug o' juice (but not similar to Port.... disagree with Larousse on that point).

Google search for De Feudis turned up restaurant pricing in the $50-$100 range (converting from sterling and euros). Definitely need to buy more.
