Valpolicella, Verona, Veneto, Italy
This wine was deeply hued, and concentrated, leaving staining on the glass.
On the nose it offered dried black cherry, blackberry preserves, creme de cassis, blackcurrant, plum, prune, fig notes next to black licorice, violet, cedar, vanilla, and leather notes.
It epitomized a full body style, with high alcohol (16.49), a fulsome mouthfeel, and robust intensity of aromas and flavors; tannins were fine-grained, ripe, silky and well-integrated. The finish was long.
60% Corvina, 20% Rondinella, 10% Oseleta, and 10% Croatina.
