When I think of food and wine, I think in terms of the experience it invokes and the memory it leaves. I've had some delicious wines in my life but there's one that simply stands out way above the rest.
In 2019, my wife and I went to a local Italian eatery owned by an Italian couple from Napoli. Their restaurant consistently ranks as number one in my town on TripAdvisor. We went there to enjoy a nice meal a year after our trip to Tuscany and brought a bottle with us from that trip. I don't remember what we had to eat but it was meant to be paired with the wine, which was a 1997 Cesari Bosani Amarone. It wasn't a ridiculously expensive wine but it was like drinking liquid silk. It had a voluptuous mouth feel and hedonistic after effect.
