January 20, 2024 - I know Valpolicella is supposed to be light and tart fruit forward, but this was a bit extreme. It lacked almost any structure, making for a somewhat lackluster drinking experience. Have had much better Valpolicellas, so won’t return to this one.

August 16, 2023 - A: pale, ruby, some haziness
N: crunchy red cherry, raspberry, cranberry, touch of dried herbs, fresh ground spice/white pepper, just a touch of funk
P: dry, high acidity, med bright chalky tannins, med body, 12.5% ABV
C: good wine = balanced crunchy red fruit and acidity, med (+) intensity, med concentration, med finish on red cherry/red currant, drink now or over coming 5 years. Not your ‘typical’ Valpolicella - fresh, light, bright, crunchy, perfect summer red with a range of food, well done. -

July 22, 2023 - Nice, light, gets better after the first day, since it’s pretty fruity and confected on PnP.

May 26, 2023 - Lighter in color and body, with M/M+ tannins. M/M+ intensity and complexity. High acid. Aside from the tannin level, could almost be confused with an older Lange Nebbiolo.
