| CASOTTO DEL MERLO RECIOTO DELLA VALPOLICELLA CLASSICO 2007 DOC |
| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
GIUSEPPE CAMPAGNOLA |
| Extremely deep intense purple colour. Intense, sweet, spicy, baked cherry-plum nose with lots of vanilla notes. Intense, sweet, medium bodied, well structured, ripe and juicy plummy-cherry flavours with a lingering, vanilla-driven finish. This Recioto is thankfully ripe and rich without any peppery dried apple notes. The recommended 2006 (**+) was released on October 25, 2008 at $33.95. |

| Gambero Rosso gave this wine 2 Glasses (out of 3) in their 2010 edition, calling it “beautifully made.” TASTING NOTE: This delectable Recioto offers astounding value. Lovely sweet cherry, raspberry, pomegranate syrup and milk chocolate on the nose. Medium-full bodied, with moderate sweetness balanced by velvety tannins. Nice, long, chocolatey finish. Savour this beauty with tiramisu, pecan tart or blue cheese. (Vintages panel, April 2011) |
