2003 Musella Amarone
Written By: Michael Zimberg on Thursday, August 21, 2008
Wow. A burst of syrupy fun. Deep, dark, thick and jammy, this is a delightfully rich wine. Like a thumping bass, it has an incredibly long resonance. Good raw, true raspberry. Jill says a big pow POW of bursting fruit, with interesting pine needles. Smells like a lot of alcohol. This is all power, and although a very good value, loses something on score, because it doesn't continually change. Retail $40

Michael Zimberg has intuition when it comes to wine. Somehow, some way, he is able to spot the best deals and the best food and wine pairings. Mikey's wife, Jill, attributes it to a naturally well-defined sense of taste and smell, combined with a healthy dose of experience. Whatever it is, his reviews shouldn't be missed.
