Incredibly youthful. Bright aromatics, deep, rich, sweet with balancing acidity. Will age for another 25 years. Bravissimo!

Pic #7. 2012 Tommaso Bussola Recioto della Valpolicella Classico. Deep garnet hue with candied red fruit, raisin, dried prune, date, and fig notes; viscous, oily, and sweet. Paired with an array of desserts including cucumber and raspberry with crème fraîche ice cream, chamomile, and pink peppercorn, Black Forest cake with manjari, cherry, and coconut, and mignardises. #tommasobussola #venetowines #appassimento
