As producers all three are pretty good, not Quintarelli or Da Forno but I
think the 93 should be drunk first, 93's I've had 2-3 years ago were
beginning to go into gentle declines. Masi & Allegrini have special cru's,
if you have one of those you have 2-5 more years. Most veronese producers
bottle their normale from various sites and their special cru's from single
vineyards, which are usually more tannic and so mature later. IMHO
California use of single vineyard designations are often a rip off and an
excuse to charge $5-15 more a bottle for grapes the cost the same as a
regular bottling.

As to uraniums comment, Gary's post is just what we are here for, to
communicate about wine. We all can't help it planet-boy, if all you have in
your cellar is three different vintages of Stugotz's White Grenache.

In great years an amarone can make 30 years easily.
