"The 2020 Valpolicella Classico Superiore Poiega slowly opens in the glass, showing a dusty display of cloves, cinnamon and scant black cherries. This soothes with its round textures and vividly ripe wild berry fruits as juicy acidity adds lift and violet inner florals swirl throughout. It finishes crisp, with staining length, a subtle tug of fine tannins and a pleasantly bitter twang."
