CAPITEL NICALÒ VALPOLICELLA SUPERIORE 2019 DOC |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
TEDESCHI |
This 2019 REPEAT has a fairly deep ruby red colour. Intense, slightly spicy, fairly complex, firm. plum-cherry-cassis fruit with some gentle cedary notes. Dry, medium bodied, fairly intense, bright, slightly spicy, faintly peppery, plum-cherry purée flavours with a very crisp, lingering, sandalwood-tinged finish. This ready-to-drink, slightly peppery, new blend of 35% Corvine, 35% Corvinone, 20% Rondinella and 10% of four other varieties has 14.5% alcohol and 4 g/L residual sugar with a new lot number 2019 L9 on the back label. Not up to the richer, recommended best buy 2018 (***) that was released on June 26, 2021 at $17.95. |

TASTING NOTE: Very pleasant notes of lightly spiced aronia berries and a hint of sous bois, following through to a medium body with lightly firm, well-integrated tannins and a long, bright finish, leaving an aftertaste of cherry dark chocolate. Serious Valpo and delicious. Drink now. Score - 92 (jamessuckling.com, Oct. 22, 2021) |
