Azienda Agricola Musella Valpolicella Superiore Corvina Blend 2019

$21

Italy’s modern-day Garden of Paradise is found just outside the gates of Verona at Azienda Agricola Musella. Encompassing more than 1,000 acres of forestland where olive and fruit trees share space with grape vines and ancient churches and cozy cottages dot the banks of a meandering river, this inspiring biodynamic estate is a regional treasure. A textbook example of the spring-inspired joy of pure Valpolicella. Freshly cut flowers, cherry blossoms, baking spices; tangy and juicy, with light tannins and a lot of pep and energy. A beautiful snapshot of the region’s native red grapes.

Exotic to the core, the 2019 Valpolicella Superiore seduces with a bouquet of fresh mint, crushed wild berries, spiced orange rinds and menthol. It's racy and lifted on the palate with mineral-tinged strawberries and hints of citrus. This finishes with unexpected length and potency, leaving pretty inner florals and lightly grippy tannins to linger. The 2019 is such a pleasure to taste. (Eric Guido, Vinous, March 2023)
