Saturday, June 16, 2012 - Appearance: Bright and clear, of medium (+) intensity ruby color with paler rims and legs
Nose: Clean, with medium intensity and developing aromas of sour red cherries, redcurrant, cedar, violet, medicinal, rustic and gamey.
Palate: Dry, with medium acidity and medium (-) tannin which is resolved and silky. Medium in alcohol level, this wine has a medium (-) body with medium intensity flavors of red cherries, raspberry, violet, tomato and mint. The finish is medium (-) in length.
Conclusion: Acceptable Valpolicella entry-level wine, with typically low tannin and light-bodied characters. The nose and palate are reasonably intense but fairly simple, with a fairly short length. Overall the wine is in balance. Ready to drink now and not intend for further ageing.
