Score: ✧✧✧✧✭ |
This Recioto della Valpolicella Classico shows a deep ruby red color and
nuances of ruby red, impenetrable to light. The nose denotes intense,
clean, pleasing, refined and elegant aromas which start with hints of
blackberry, plum and dried violet followed by aromas of black cherry,
blueberry, vanilla, pink pepper, tamarind, mace, cinnamon and chocolate.
The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a sweet and tannic attack,
however balanced by alcohol, full body, intense flavors, pleasing
roundness. The finish is persistent with flavors of blackberry, plum and
black cherry. This Recioto della Valpolicella Classico ages for 12 months
in barrique followed by 12 months of aging in bottle. |
