Still one of my favorite Amarone producers of all time. Unfortunately the world seems to agree, and where I paid £50 a bottle 15 years ago, it now costs $52 a glass (albeit in Vegas). Check out the abv - 17%! You can tell on the nose, but the palate wins — 2 years ago
2007. Brought it home from Mendoza. Well aged, smooth, and ready to drink. Some red fruit and few tannins. Malbec has balanced out a lot over the years — 7 years ago

Olhaí, @Marlos Silva @Marcio Morelli @Andre Rodrigues ! É disso que eu falo, quando digo que esse negócio de pontuar não é pra mim. Esse Valpo, dentro da perspectiva original de um Valpolicella, um vinho do dia-a-dia para acompanhar uma refeição, me dá muito mais prazer que aquele Valpo do Tommaso Bussola (que custa 4x mais, diga-se de passagem). No entanto, aquele eu pontuei com 90, por ser um vinho mais "elaborado" e esse com 89, refletindo sua deliciosa simplicidade. Uma injustiça! Preciso de um analista urgente! — 11 years ago

2011 vintage. At Lima. Giovanni Rosso's first vintage of the classic cru, Vigna Rionda. Medium ruby - lovely shiny wine. On the nose, closed at first - due to its youth - but with air, spectacular. Minty herb, liquorice, sour black cherry, smoke, violets and tar. Very complex. On the palate, silky smooth - high tannin but ripe and luscious. Medium plus alcohol. Full concentration and high acidity. Deep flavours here. This is going to be a blockbuster of a wine with a long future. Spectacular Barolo. Drink 2023-2043 (although, to be fair, drinks really well now). — 10 years ago

Fabulous Vanilla essence - so good. At Next - Alinea. — 8 years ago
This wine will be called dessert tonight. An unreal nose of Tart cherries, raspberries and baking spices. On the palate this is like grandmas sugar cookies, a cherry Tart, and maybe a little nutmeg. Very high ABV is nicely offset by nice acidity. A great ending to an Italian feast in NYC. Will need to hit the gym in the morning. — 10 years ago
