25a Full-bodied lover. amorist or amoroso?
I cannot decide! Which is right and why?

amoroso ...double defn

full bodied sherry/wine and a lover

I had amorosa, a full-bodied wine. Unless I'm missing something, a lousy clue.

amoroso is in chambers with both defns

Many thanks kirky

Sorry, kirky. Hadn't seen your post. Amorosa is also in Chambers with both definitions; however, I can't see using a noun as a definition for an adjective (in the case of the wine).

Ah, my mistake. I do see that amoroso is given as an adjective, not for a wine.
