Valpolicella Superiore 2019

The Wine Advocate, 92p
This is one of the nicest Valpolicellas you can buy. The Marion 2016 Valpolicella Superiore is a fresh mid-weight wine with loads of pretty primary intensity focused on wild cherry, cassis and raspberry. Those fruity tones give the wine lift and an immediate sense of vertical intensity and brightness that could liven up a simple pork chop or a classic hamburger and fries. One-third of the Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella grapes used here undergo appassimento for one month. This wine offers an impeccable sense of sharpness and focus, and that pristine quality definitely stands out in this pretty vintage.
