Tasting notes

Complex and elegant nose revealing dark cherry, dried roses, and subtle baking spices intertwined with hints of tobacco and forest floor. The palate shows remarkable depth with concentrated red fruit, particularly sour cherry and wild strawberry, supported by fine-grained tannins and bright acidity. Notes of Mediterranean herbs, leather, and a touch of dark chocolate emerge mid-palate. The finish is persistent and refined, showcasing the masterful balance between fruit intensity and structural integrity characteristic of this legendary producer.

About this wine

Giuseppe Quintarelli is one of Valpolicella's most respected producers, known for crafting wines of remarkable depth and complexity from the heart of Italy's Veneto region. This Valpolicella Classico Superiore represents the pinnacle of traditional winemaking in the DOC, blending Corvina, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Sangiovese to create a full-bodied red with distinctive character and aging potential.

The wine captures the essence of its terroir, a region celebrated for its mineral-rich volcanic soils and ideal microclimate. Quintarelli's philosophy emphasizes natural winemaking practices and respect for the fruit, resulting in a wine with bright red fruit notes, subtle herbaceous undertones, and a refined finish touched by hints of chocolate. At 14% ABV, it strikes an elegant balance between power and sophistication.

This Valpolicella pairs beautifully with beef, poultry, and red meat dishes, and is equally at home alongside charcuterie, cured meats, and pasta preparations. It's an essential choice for discerning collectors and those seeking an authentic expression of one of Italy's most distinctive wine regions.
