Valpolicella, Verona, Veneto, Italy
The 2017 Valpolicella Classico Superiore Ripasso Ca'del Laito impresses with its lift and grace, as autumnal spiced cherry-berry fruits are complemented by hints of sweet oak. Ripe red/black berries coast along a core of acids. Hints of dark chocolate and clove come forward toward the close. $25.00 (Eric Guido, Vinous, March 2022)

On the nose cherry syrup, some tobacco, and a touch of mint. Reminds me of the smell of my nono’s cantina when I was young. The wine is soft and plush; light tannins, a long, lingering finish. Cherry is the emphasis

Fresh bright acid, fresh red fruit facing off with cocoa, baking spice, and toast. 2017 Baby amarone is delicious now, and it seems like it would benefit from more time in bottle. Best on day 2.

Pretty luscious and delicious, definitely taste the ripasso. Really velvety tannins and well rounded. Some oak, cocoa, tobacco, touch of vanilla and mild baking spices. From Flatiron Wines. 02/20/22
