Tommasi Vigneto Raphael Valpolicella Classico Superiore DOC 2017 Review
When I think about Valpolicella, this is what I think about. Bright, buoyant cherry fruit with a light touch of vanilla on a broad, tangy palate tinged with notes of plowed earth and flecked with black pepper. The acidity is high, and the mouthfeel is round. This is a great wine to share multiple bottles of with friends for any occasion and affordable enough to have a few bottles at the ready. You’ll be the life of the party.
