Tenuta Santa Maria
Valpolicella Classico Superiore Corvina Blend
Truncated party notes: a fun, somewhat larger-framed Valpo. No dried fruit or ripasso notes, but the alcohol is a bit noticeable lemon the back half of the palate. Bridges the gap between gulpable and Ripasso.

Jun 16th, 2024A wildly spicy Valpolicella with a sour citrus twang contrasting rich cherry-berry fruits. Long and full of character, this juicy, high-energy effort leans more toward blue/purple fruits throughout the finale. There’s a lot of pleasure to be found here. $20.00 (Eric Guido, Vinous, February 2021)
