Tommasi, DOC Valpolicella, 2014 only 12% ! (natural ?) somewhat light style, bit too light for me; I agree with: 10/25/2015 - lkilpio wrote: This is somewhat more crisp, more acidic, less fruity and more dominated by berry aromas and flavors (....).
The body is light. The wine has bright texture. The wine finishes short. The wine has medium acidity.

A blend of Corvina (60%), Rondinella (30%) and Molinara (10%).
Quite dark but also very translucent ruby red color. Very fruity and sweet-toned nose with aromas of cherry marmalade, jammy raspberries and a little bit of fresh red fruits. The wine is light-bodied, fresh and well-delineated on the palate with juicy flavors of tart cranberries, ripe cherries, some jammy red fruits and a touch of brambly raspberries. The wine comes across as pleasantly balanced with high acidity, whereas the tannins are really light and mellow. The finish is very lightly grippy with bright and fruity flavors of tart red berries, some sweet cherry tones, a little bit of sour cherry bitterness and a hint of ripe raspberries.
A simple, fresh and fruity red. Balanced but also very straightforward and quite foursquare in style. A perfectly decent everyday red for lighter meals, but nothing beyond that. Perhaps a bit pricey for the style at 11,69€.

This is somewhat more crisp, more acidic, less fruity and more dominated by berry aromas and flavors than Zenato's Valpolicella Superiore. However, in its own style and nature, this is convincing. The wine was a good pair with home-made pizza.
