2019 Valpolicella Superiore D.O.C.

This is the product of 45 years old vines.

It offers bright, red cherry fruit with a hint of exotic wood and roasted coffee on the nose.

Well judged tannins and nice acidity balance the palate, which has plenty of very appealing cherry and blackberry fruit.

Taking a leaf out of the Amarone-makers' handbook, Corte Adami actually allows a short period of drying for the Corvina grapes, resulting in a surprisingly fuller body and richer style compared to other Valpolicella wines.

*91 Points James Suckling: "I like the herbal complexity to this Valpolicella red on the nose with cumin, cloves, oregano and some pretty
raspberries and spices. Medium body, bright acidity, firm tannins and a fresh finish. Drink now."

*90 Points Gilbert & Gaillard: "Young garnet. Spicy nose with stewed black fruit undertones, humus presence and a touch of graphite. Juicy, dense, rich palate with beautiful, closely-integrated tannins. The finish combines deliciously mouth-watering freshness and fruit."
