Although the Superiore designation requires that the grapes that go into this wine are harvested at a slightly higher sugar level than standard Valpolicella—thus producing a wine of potential higher alcohol—this Valpolicella is a soft, supple example of this classic wine. Made predominately from Corvina, this wine displays the ripe black cherry flavors for which the grape is known.
Ruby red in color, this Valpolicella Superiore offers fleshy aromas of wild berries, black currants, black cherries, and spices, with hints of chocolate. On the palate, the wine is dry and robust with velvety texture.
Pair this wine with antipasti, arrabbiata sauces, seared sashimi tuna, or orange-glazed duck.
CRITIC ACCLAIM

“Good Superiore. Polished and contemporary, without quite hitting the sour, red fruited notes of the better tradionalists. Shows dark fruit and reductive hints of violets and camphor, with well-managed grape tannins and oak. Quite drinkable.” — James Suckling, Apr 2024
