From Valpolicella, Veneto, Italy

Tightly packed plum and berry on the nose, with some laurel leaves and a hint of black pepper. Medium-to full-bodied with lots of tension to the fruit and quite a tight tannin frame. It’s all there, but this is like a closed fist. Needs time to open up and expand. Best from 2023.

The 2018Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso Capitel San Rocco is peppery and floral with black raspberries and crushed stone. This is silky and elegant in feel, with a streak of savory herbs and tart cherry fruits that slowly saturate. It finishes leaving the palate drenched in primary concentration and lightly structured with hints of licorice to linger. The Capitel San Rocco is matured in used oak barrels between 10 to 25 hectoliters.

The Tedeschi 2018 Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso Capitel San Rocco is 35% Corvina, 35% Corvinone, 20% Rondinella and 10% other complementary grapes. The wine is aged in oak casks for 18 months (with 100,000 bottles made). The bouquet has hints of mesquite smoke and toasted spice that frame dark plum and dried cherry. It's a classic wine as far as Ripasso goes, executed with a very clean and fruit-forward style.
