Valpolicella Classico Superiore Corvina Blend
#1000th Review# One of my all time favorite, this can easily crush many Amarone. Very young, no signs of tertiary notes at all. Sweet and warm spices, raisin, sweet cherries, mocha, dark chocolate and bright acidity. Best on day 2, very smooth texture. 15% abv and it’s well balanced. Wish I have more in the cellar!

Feb 18th, 2020At Maple & Ash in Chicago, a spot I was really impressed with. This was an elegant wow wine. Crushed rocks enveloped by sweet, dark red fruit. Ample tannic presence but no hard edges and absolutely no raisin-y qualities.

Dec 10th, 2018Wow! This wine is surreal. So deep and flavorful and smooth without being super fruity or jammy. Dark fruit flavors with a cherry top. Lush. Going to blow our roast chicken away.

May 26th, 2018Вишня, малина, ежевика, сухая смородина, ароматные травы, смола. Спелая концентрация с лёгким, воздушным внутренним объемом и хорошей структурой. Красивый эфирный нос с изящной микролетучкой, мягкие танины, элегантная динамика.
