"The 2021 Valpolicella Classico Superiore is remarkably pretty, with a cascade of rosy florals and confectionary spices accentuating crushed blackberries. This is soft and round in feel, with juicy acidity and crisp red and blue fruits complicated by a tinge of white pepper. The 2021 finishes notably fresh yet potent and long, leaving hints of crunchy raspberry and suggestions of black tea. What a beauty."
