Valpolicella Superiore Corvina Blend 2017

9.1

A touch past its prime but showing well overall. Stylistically somewhere between Quintarelli and Ca’ La Bionda. I was expecting a little more funk. Medium bodied (perhaps due to the vintage) with a sleek and elegant texture. — 8 days ago

This is a large-auditorium college intro class in Valtellina Nebbiolo. (In contrast to a graduate seminar led by Professor Marsetti or Professor Ar.Pe.Pe.) Loads of dried cherry fruit and winey old barrel scents on the nose. A bit of faded rose petals and stone. The light color looks fairly advanced. The palate is openly fruited initially, but has a bit of a tannic clench at the end. So the balance to be struck is drinking while the fruit is so nice but waiting to see if the tannins drop and soften. Not a long term project. Enjoy over the next few years would be my take, but I tend to favor things on the younger side. — 16 days ago

@Tom Casagrande, c’mon man, we’re just having fun, I LOVE reading your tasting notes and comments. Now that I’m retired, I’d be the first to admit that maybe I have WAY TOO MUCH free time for my smart ass comments to come out!! With that said, I AM (mildly? barely? not at all?) concerned about why you’re already invoking the 5th Amendment??!!?? 🤔😎😇

Very cherry 🍒 lots of it! Morello, dark black and so on….juicy. For me this cherry fest is over the top. But hey good producer and this baby fat might fade away….but i am not sure what else is there. Good for Pasta & Pizza. A little pricey at 34$ i would go for a Chianti instead. — a day ago

Very nice! Red cherry, plum, and dried fruit. Deep ruby. Acidity and Tannins are nicely balanced. Excellent spice note. Went great with our duck breast and lingonberry sauce. — 17 days ago

Feel like this wine is somewhat underrated here. Fairly small producer but a very pleasing wine. Balance and complexity. Would buy again but feel like it is slightly overpriced... — a month ago

Super Tuscans can be so so great, but yeah the good ones are too much $$$

I love this Ribero del Duero. And to your great point, and unlike much of Spain, it’s a bit much on price
