Brought to dinner, opened and poured into a decanter just prior to service; enjoyed over the course of 90min. This was my last bottle of the 1994 Rosso del Bepi and I found it to be similarly sensational to the previous bottle that was enjoyed a couple years prior. The wine pours a deep garnet color with a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is vinous with a mix of ripe, tart and desiccated black fruit: brambles, pomegranate, Montmorency cherry, plums, spiced meat, ginger, old leather, dried flowers and just a kiss of VA. On the palate, the wine is dry (technically) though there’s some obvious residual sugar; medium tannin (integrated) and medium acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. This finish is long. As I stated earlier, another outstanding showing. Drink now through 2030. — 2 days ago

Try to catch up on a big backlog...
This was a nice Veneto piece (not that Bepi ever sucks). Kind of like a Valpolicella Ripasso with a Bdx Adrenalin shot. Still pimping purity and expression, but with just that little bit of added depth and tannin. And super affordable for a Quintarelli. Perfetto with Osso Bucco. — 6 years ago

A more refined, very smooth and complex aged grappa an Aqva di Vita. Also picked it up in Italy and finished at a family dinner. — 9 years ago

I would go for the Rosso del Bepi instead for better value wine. — 4 years ago

Outstanding amarone which has successfully blended power and elegance. Lots of cherry liqueur and marzipan aroma. Raisin flavour with rich and velvety tannins. Tasted blind and went for hot vintage in southern Rhone. — 9 years ago
