  (Azuebda Agricola) La Giaretta "i Quadretti' Valpolicella Classico Superiore, 2008, $59/750 ml at Dino's Restaurant, Cleveland Heights, Connecticut Avenue, Washington, DC, (less 33 percent as a gesture to me from the house); imported by 'The Country Vintner', Inc., P.O. Box 11540, Ashland, VA 23004. 14 pabv.
  
  Brownish olive color with a faded edge.
  
  Sort of a dried plum, foggy note in the nose. There is good stewed fruit, freshness and a hint of sourness.
  
  Light and delicate texture, as expected from this wine type, and there is a hint of savory bitterness.
  
  Good richness and a nice bitterness clinging to the finish.
  
  Having been used to wash down a tomato basil mushroom-beef-white truffle sauce, it was quite successful in that role. Others at the table seemed to agree.
  
  90/100 ml.
