Valpolicella DOC Superiore 2013
Description
Made with the same grapes as the Amarone 2010 - Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella and Oseleta. It is a wine of great intensity and full-body that invites discovery and reveals itself slowly. The first sip is austere and then all its power and personality are expressed. A wine that is intense and complex, elegant and ethereal at the same time.
Style
It is a hedonistic wine. A wine that is meant to be inspected, shy at first and then it reveals itself in all its personality and structure. An elegant wine, which is all about spice, restrained fruit and complexity. On the nose, hearthy aromas of cedar and tobacco, hints of forest fruits; on the palate is extremely powerful, warm and spicy with savoury notes of clove, dark cherry and coffee. Intensely rich and layered, tannins are firm yet silky and velvety. It has great finesse with mouthwatering acidity and very long length of flavours.
Food Pairings
Hand made pasta or risotti. Red meat or boiled meat according to the Veronese tradition. Matured cheeses.
