Red Blend from Valpolicella, Veneto
Roccolo Grassi make some of the most enjoyable Valpolicella Superiores I've consumed. They are always balanced, fresh and dry. The development, layering and epic complexity are impressive.The 2017 Valpolicella Superiore by Roccolo Grassi is a sleeping giant. It slowly awakens in the glass with a dark mix of herbal-tinged plums, cracked ashen stone, incense and dried flowers. This is silky verging on velvety, with a core of stimulating acidity that helps to enliven depths of ripe minera

The 2023 Bianco Secco is a model of purity with its bouquet of dusty florals, cracked slate, lime zest and green melon. It opens with a balanced inner sweetness offset by a sour citrus tinge as tart green apple enhances its tension. A salty flourish punctuates the experience as hints of young kiwi mix with apricot through the long and wonderfully fresh finish. This is a refined and captivating vintage of Bianco Secco, a wine that continues to punch well above its class.Eric Guido, Vinous 9

White Blend from Valpolicella, Veneto
Always a fascinating wine with its complex blend of Garganega, Trebbiano Toscano, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Saorin. That fifth grape is the local name for Tocai or Friuliano. Every vintage of this wine I have devoured has been a delight, reflecting the year and always showing as seamless, laced with textural phenolics, fine with refreshing acidity.A little more colour than usual at this stage: almond, white jasmine flowers and white peach on the nose. The palate is silky, with a to

The 2023 Primofiore is more savory than sweet, opening with dusty rose tones, a beguiling whiff of tangerine, wild strawberries and stone dust. It is round and energetic in style, perfumed with violet and lavender tones as ripe blackberry fruits swirl throughout. The finish is classically dry and long, yet remarkably fresh, leaving a subtle tannic crunch and a hint of wild blueberry to linger.Eric Guido, Vinous 93 Points50% Corvina and Corvinone, 50% Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet
Red Blend from Valpolicella, Veneto
The Primafiore is a little hidden gem in the Quintarelli range. It's a great intro to just how skilled the Quintarelli team is at making wines blended from native and French varietals. An approach we see in their Ca del Merlo and top of the wazza Alzero.The little brother to the Alzero, red floral notes, dusty spice, orange peel and ripe leafy cassis fruit. Very perfumed and intense now, with hints of lavender and ripe blueberry. The finish is long, with very fine, chalky tannins.And

The 2018 Valpolicella Classico Superiore pulls the taster close to the glass with a darkly alluring blend of dried roses, violets, crushed stone, clove and blood orange. It washes across the palate with silken textures, lifted and finessed in the style of the vintage, as ripe wildberry fruits swirl beneath an air of sweet lavender. The word ethereal comes to mind as the 2018 tapers off with sweet tannins that provide a lovely framework to perfumed inner florals and hints of blackberry that reson
Red Blend from Valpolicella, Veneto
Over the last few releases we've seen a continual evolution with a little more freshness and tension across the range. The Valpolicella Classico Superiore is the first of the traditional Veneto red blends from Quintarelli and a great introduction to them.The fruit is fully ripe and perfectly balanced by the acidity. It’s fresher and more taut than previous vintages. The 2016s had more tannin, while the 2019 carries tannin, elegance and real power. By comparison with the Ca del Merlo, the V

Four years after release, Quintarelli's Ca del Merlo is sitting in a beautiful space. A wine that sits so comfortably in its own skin. Once again a demonstration from Quintarelli of their masterful skill in eliciting the best from an array of local and foreign varieties. Power with transparency and delicacy, complex sweet fruits and florals with earthiness, dry woody herbs, pops of spice. Super fine long tannins, that have relaxed, yet remain finely balanced with refreshing delicate acid. Mad Vi

“The 2016 Valpolicella Superiore Monte Lodoletta is intense, with a captivating bouquet that blends cedar shavings, savory herbs and balsamic spices with rum-soaked cherries, sweet lavender and dark chocolate. This sweeps across the palate with silken textures, delivering masses of tart red and black fruits along with hints of espresso bean. Crunchy mineral tones and zesty acidity add dramatic lift. The 2016 tapers off long and staining, sporting a pleasantly bitter tinge of cocoa as grippy ta
