Amarone for under £20 is a rare find, and fans of the style will be thrilled with this. It has all the classic intense aromas and velvety flavours you'd expect – spiced plum compote and rich Black Forest gateau – anchored by chewy tannins. It's a generous mouthful and would be delicious with game dishes.
