Tasting notes:Fragrant nose of black cherry, dark berries, and spicy, earthy notes
Full bodied and chewy on the palate
More of the same on the dense, chewy finish
Summary:
This is the most dense and extracted style of Valpolicella I have ever encountered. While the higher expressions of Amarone from the same Italian region certainly show like this, a Valpolicella Superiore is typically more of a red cherry flavor that dances with minerality. Needless to say, I was surprised by this wine. It tastes great, but it does raise the question of whether or not it loses its sense of place.
Expect to pay around $22 for this wine. Make sure to let it breathe, and raise a glass!--A Review from The Wine Cask Blog. Creative Commons: Attribution - ShareAlike 2.5 applies
