В аромате вина сочные красные ягоды (вишня, зрелая клубника), слива, ежевика, тонкий оттенок дерева и ванили. Лёгкое в теле, заметна кислотность. Танины мягкие, шёлковые. Гастронмичное вино. Пить сейчас, можно через 1-2 года. Будет неплохо с простыми блюдами типа карбонары, пиццы Маргариты.

Medium ruby color. Medium intense aromas of red cherry, blackberry, plum, overripe raspberry, vanilla and wood. Developing.
The wine is dry, acidity is medium+, tannins are medium, body is medium.
Flavor intensity is medium, red cherry, ripe strawberry, blackberry, black pepper and chocolate.
Finish is medium.
Good. Drink now, suitable for aging 1-2 years.

Better than expected. Bright purple color with reddish hues. Orange peels dominate but ample plums and some dark fruit and floral elements. Very unique.

Typical of a Classico Valpolicella, light bodied but big hits of fruit on the palette. Not worth the restaurant price.

Surprised at some poor reviews for this, but they were different vintages. Nose not overly expressive, but enough to identify Valpo. Light, soft as a pillow,with a juiciness and drinkability that is really attractive.

Classic Valpollicella nose. Mouth feel is softer than expected but still very nice.
