"A mix of violets and roses gives way to dusty dried cherry as the 2019 Valpolicella Superiore Classico Poiega opens in the glass. It's soft and supple on the palate, with sweet spices complementing ripe red fruits under an air of pretty inner florals. This leaves a tinge of lavender and clove to linger through the medium length and pleasantly fresh finale. While not the last note on depth, the 2019 is a highly pleasurable Valpolicella Superiore."
