Tedeschi

Rich and firm Lucchine with beautiful fruit on the palate. An inexpensive wine from a good house, which gives us a lot of pleasure every year. SUPERIORE.DE

Lively Valpolicella Superiore with a beautiful scent of cherries and light red berries. Fine fruitiness on the palate, soft tannin and restrained mild acidity give the taste a pleasant lightness. SUPERIORE.DE

The Valpolicella produced in the Appassimento or Amarone process is ruby violet. In the nose with compact notes of ripe cherries, blackberries, some cloves and liquorice, in the background discreet with notes of chocolate. Full and powerful on the palate. SUPERIORE.DE

"Intense, rich ruby red. Finely drawn nose of blackberries, black elderberries and peppermint. Juicy and full on the palate, shows a lot of enamel, tightly woven tannin, remains long in the mouth, in the final powerful and slightly non-slip." Falstaff

San Rocco, after two years of ageing in Slavonian oak barrels with a sweet character and an exuberant fruity, expressive taste, invites you to enjoy it. SUPERIORE.DE

"Loaded with aromatic herb and spiced orange notes that accent the baked black cherry and plum fruit, this expressive red is medium- to full-bodied and lightly chewy, with sage, rosemary and smoke details wafting on the finish." Wine Spectator

"The 2016 Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso Capitel San Rocco shows great dark fruit intensity, spread over a rich mid-weight style. I found the breezes of rosemary essence and eucalyptus oil to be very distinctive and nice. It's the perfect choice for roasted lamb with garlic and rosemary potatoes, and it's a great value too." Robert Parker

"A Valpolicella Ripasso that effortlessly combines ripeness and elegance. Fine blackberries, ripe plums and cocoa powder on the nose. The bright acidity and the supple tannins are beautifully integrated on the palate. Long and silky, dry finish." James Suckling

An accessible, fruity classic at a high level. Clear scent of wild berries and flowers, on the palate a mix of dark berry notes, fine spices and light tannin. Good taste and depth give this noble Valpolicella its wonderful drinking flow. SUPERIORE.DE

"Deep dark, rich ruby red. Fragrant nose, of rich blackberries, dark chocolate, liquorice, light leather touch in the aftertaste. Full-bodied entrance to the palate with a slightly spicy bouquet, spans wide, rich drink, builds up in many layers, powerful, very long final." Falstaff

The new name "Marne 180" is the program: "Marne" means marl soil on which the vines for this wonderful Amarone grow. They are at least 20 years old and lie in an ideal 180° direction - from south-west to south-east.

Rich, dense colour, compact bouquet with intense aromas of plum, green tea and tobacco, a fine chocolate note in the background. The powerful body changes on the palate into a dynamic taste experience with sweet fruit melt, firm tannin and long aftertaste. SUPERIORE.DE

"This leads off with a waft of bay leaf on the nose, followed by an herbal accent that laces the black raspberry, fig cake and spice box flavors on the palate. A firm, medium- to full-bodied red, this is not a powerhouse, but offers pleasant freshness and expression." Wine Spectator

" Lots of pretty herbal and foresty undertones come to the fore on the nose, ranging from cumin to aniseed and truffles. Dark cherries and brambleberries abound. Plush and chewy, this full-bodied red delivers soft, juicy tannins against a backdrop of ostentatious dark fruit." James Suckling

"The wine's name Marne 180 plays up both of those site-specific attributes. A new wine from Tedeschi, the 2015 Amarone della Valpolicella Marne 180 is slightly more approachable when stacked against the estate's Amarone Capitel Monte Olmi. Offering bright primary fruit with good complexity in the form of spice, tobacco and dried herbs, you could serve the Marne 180 at a holiday party with a platter of French cheeses." Robert Parker

Sparkling ruby red, fine scent of honey, pickled cherries and plums. Full and dense on the palate, full on the palate, noticeable tannin in the finish. SUPERIORE.DE

Amarone della Valpolicella Classico La Fabriseria presents itself massive and with seductive complexity. Deep bouquet of black berries and cocoa, violets and lavender. The taste is immensely fruity with the aromas of cherry, blackberry and wild berry, and the invigorating impressions of medicinal herbs. Elegant and long finish with fine sweetness and a hint of mint. For us one of the greatest wines of Valpolicella! SUPERIORE.DE

"Dark, bright ruby red. Elegant and fragrant nose of ripe plums, Amarena cherries, chocolate, with an aftertaste of mint and the finest notes of wood. Complex and elegant on the palate with filigree acidity, pronounced fruit, stretches far over the tongue, gripping in the second part with polished tannin, echoes very long." Falstaff

"A rich, racehorse of a red, with a sense of finesse to the integration of dense and sculpted elements. Offers a rich streak of smoky mineral and forest floor, showing a lovely range of cherry and black raspberry coulis, mandarin orange peel and sandalwood flavors. Delivers a long, grippy finish." Wine Spectator

"Deep ruby. Captivating nose of ripe red cherry, cassis, botanical herbs, smoke and brown spices. At once powerful and refined, with a multilayered quality to its complex, opulent red cherry, aromatic herb and honeyed flavors. Finishes extremely long and classically dry. A knockout Amarone. Tedeschi’s 2011 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva La Fabriseria is a benchmark wine in more ways than one: it’s the first Riserva La Fabriseria ever made by Tedeschi, and also the first time this wine is a true cru, made from a single vineyard in San Giorgio di Valpolicella (which falls in between Fumane and Sant’Ambrogio di Valpolicella). A blend of Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella and Oseleta, it’s aged four years in large oak barrels, it’s a wine Tedeschi makes only in exceptional vintages." VINOUS

"This is a bruiser of a wine—but in a very good way. Loud and expressive and with a roundhouse 17% alcohol kick, the 2011 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Riserva la Fabriseria throws out several different shades of smoke and spice within its thick quality of fruit. Super rich and full-bodied, you'll appreciate its bold character of toasted espresso bean and oak, presented alongside cola and cherry liqueur. The wine is like a gregarious but cuddly friend who is built like a tank and doesn't register his own strength. The blend is 40% Corvina, 40% Corvinone, 15% Rondinella and 5% Oseleta, all coming from the La Fabriseria vineyard located between San Giorgio di Valpolicella and Mazzurega in the Sant'Ambrogio valley, with vines at 500 meters above sea level. The grapes are dried for four months in a ventilated room. Since its birth, this wine has only been produced in the following vintages: 1983, 1988, 1995, 1997, 1998, 2005, 2007 and 2011. Starting with this 2011 vintage, the wine now carries the Riserva designation. You won't find many Amarones quite like this one, especially as only 2,500 bottles of this vintage were made."
