Nose like a 1980’s on palate like 2000’s even after opening (kept in bottle) for a day. Once poured out the glass the wine mellow down quite quickly. Drank it at Suinsom Val Gardena — 3 months ago

Drank 10/6/23. Tasting event.

Scents of coffee dominate. Strawberry, cherry, and a bit of earth. Well balanced. Generally amarone is not my cup of tea, but this is quite nice.

Rich yet savoury, with great depth & purity. Freshness. Precision. Spicy fullness with amazing drinkability.
Pure cherry, kirsch & amaretto, some leather, a bit of undergrowth & mushroom,
Surprisingly tannic on the palate - grupy, juicy fresh. Zippy acidity, cherry freshness, savoury purity. Delicious, complex, quite profound. Amazing wine. — 3 months ago

Really interesting funky wine. Not a textbook valpocella ripasso but still great. Dark cherry, blackberry, and smoke on the nose. Medium bodied, not as sweet as I’d expect for this style. Lots of licorice & cocoa. Finishes with a lingering cocoa note with lots of wood. — 4 months ago

Speris began working as vine growers in Valpolicella seven generations ago. Deep Ruby with aromas of dried berry fruits and sweet smoky spices. On the palate flavors of ripe plum and sweet berries with cacao, spice and fig flavors. Fine tannins, long complex rich finish ending with fruit, tobacco and earthy notes, good structure. Will continued to get better with age, good now. Sustainable. — 4 months ago
