    Dark ruby red in colour. The bouquet is a furious indication of what this opulent long-distance runner is capable of: full-flavoured heart cherry fruit, blue flowers, damp forest soil, elegant spice and a well-dosed use of wood alternate impressively. The attack is just as complex and multi-layered, followed by beguiling wild berries, precisely polished tannins and an extraordinarily elegant long final. Wow, this is pure fruit! SUPERIORE.DE

    "Bright ruby red with light garnet-coloured reflections. Violets, blood orange and candied mandarin orange on the nose, with an ethereal finish reminiscent of sage and cough drops. Precise on the palate with stimulating acidity and a brisk, slightly sugary mouthfeel." Falstaff

    "The 2019 Valpolicella Classico Superiore benefits from some bottle ageing to show hints of resin or Vaseline with dried fruits and blackcurrants. You can also find dried roses and violets." Wine Advocate

    "The Valpolicella Classico Superiore 2019 exudes a sweet, fragrant bouquet that combines cedar wood and dried roses with mocha-coloured black cherries. This wine is a paragon of purity, with a silky texture and vibrant ripe red and blue fruits energised by lively acidity. A tactile mineral note gives the wine traction towards the end. Crisp tannins frame the experience well, while the 2019 finishes long and full of youthful tension. Even if it is already pleasant today, there is no shame in keeping a few bottles in the cellar for three to five years." Vinous

    "Plump cherry and wild strawberry fruit is framed by lively tangerine zest acidity and light, fine tannins in this lush, medium-bodied red wine. Rich notes of rooibos tea, cocoa powder, smoke and vanilla linger on the finish." Wine Spectator

    "The wines of this excellent producer are characterised by their attention to detail, sensible, not excessive fruit and impressive tension. Concise red and black cherries, amaro liqueur, aniseed, green garden herbs and a hint of camphor, orange peel and leather varnish. The finish is soft and firm rather than sweet. A very good Classico Superiore." James Suckling
