| Description: | Organically Farmed & Practicing Biodynamic. Eric Guido, Vinous 93 Points - "The 2019 Valpolicella Superiore Classico Sant'Urbano is perfumed in the glass, as savory herbs, crushed rocks and graphite give way to peppery blackberries and currants. This coasts along the palate, cool-toned and finessed with a core of crisp red fruits and minerals cascading across the palate. Violet and lavender tones resonate throughout as sweet tannins add a pleasant [framework] to the finish. This is top-shelf Valpolicella.". This is one of the most significant Valpolicella Superiore in the area and is obtained from the grapes of the SantUrbano vineyard, a beautiful hill in the Fumane municipality where the vine seems to find its natural position. After being carefully selected, the grapes are left to dry for around 20-25 days, concentrating the flavours and enriching the aromas and softness, which find the perfect balance after approximately two years of ageing. It is a wine which stands out for its remarkable elegance and complexity. This wine makes a delicious accompaniment to red meat dishes and matured cheeses and improves with age. |
