Medium yellow, pear, bruised fruits, red apple skins and granny smith tartness. Lots of mineral. Extremely acidic on the palate, wakes you up immediately. Better after a decant or in our case on the second day.
Needs 10-20 years.

1986 Giuseppe Quintarelli Valpolicella Classico Riserva

Decanted 1 hour and served from Riedel Bdx glass
Garnet with slight bricking at rim
Sweet, kirschy, chinotto, amaretto, christmas spice, almond and celery salt.
Medium + acid, medium - tannin, high alcohol, though integrates after about 30 minutes.
Outstanding long finish. Love how these old amarones almost turn into burgundies.
Still lots of life left.

From riedel Bdx glass. From a freshly opened OWC, cellared since release.
Garnet to rim, no fading at all.
Nose of roasted earth/soil, cherry liqueur, cassis, menthol, anise, burned hazelnut.
After two hours decant this is perfectly seamless on the palate, great mouthfeel, medium+ acid, medium but integrated tanning and long finish.
Incredible, would suggest 1 hour decant for maximum pleasure.
