The balance isn’t ideal and I would suggest drinking this on the younger side

began a bit lean and peppery but put on weight as it opened in the glass

underbrush and a touch of animale that can also be found on the generous and quite fleshy flavors that possess excellent volume as well as buckets of dry extract that almost render the firm and ripe tannins invisible on the massively long finish

Quintarelli, Valpolicella Classico Superiore other_regions The balance isn’t ideal andThe 2003 is an unusually bold, ripe version of the Valpolicella Classico Superiore. Black cherries, plums, mocha and spices all flesh out in this exuberant wine. The warmth of the vintage is felt in the wines contours and early appeal. My suggestion is to drink the 2003 over the next few years. As always, the style is a bit eccentric, as the 2003 spent a good six years in cask. Antonio Galloni
