Tasting Notes: Grapes that made this wine were wind dried for five months. The wine then spent four years in barrel and one extra year in bottle prior to release. This 450 case production is drinking spectacularly well but will keep getting better and can be enjoyed for another twenty years. The wine is gorgeous, full bodied, pure, layered and long with sweet black fruits, country herbs and chocolate vie for attention on the nose. Palate is rich and opulent matched with elegance and finesse. The finish is gloriously long and smooth and just goes on and on. I had the wine with some figs and blue stilton cheese and I went straight to heaven. I only have about ten cases of the vintage available and red wine does not get better. Enjoy!

 BRIGALDARA VALPOLICELLA CLASSICO 
sku # 21517711
Red Wine Hand-Picked
91 Pts ST <b> Regular Price $15.99<br> Sale Price $13.99 </b><br><font color=red><strong>MINIMUM ORDER 6 BOTTLES</strong></font><br><br><b>I Believe This Is The Highest Rating Tanzer’s IWC Has Ever Given<br>Such A Reasonably Priced Red Wine</b><br><br>This is a stunner! I have been doing business for many years with a certain Italian Wine Importer who provides us with some of the greatest Italian wines. Wines like Valdicava, Fontodi and Rinaldi’s incredible Barolos but the wine that started it all some sixteen years ago is this incredible we have to offer you today. A customer had requested the wine and I tracked it down, tasted the wine as was blown away by the quality at the price. We have offered the wine ever since and now with the 2010 Brigaldara Valpolicella, Tanzer has lavished the wine with huge praise, 91 pts. Tanzer is tougher than Parker, much less wines get 90 plus points and for him to give this wine at $13.99 91 points is something I have never seen before. Brigaldara is a house of great pedigree. Their Amarones are some of the finest, always gets Tre Bicchieri and monster scores by Parker. The Valpolicella is made with the same grapes but in a more ready drinking style, for drinking and not cellaring. A true sign of a great value red is weather it can run with the big dogs. I opened the 2010 Brigaldara Valpolicella and immediately fell in love with bouquet, luscious fresh red berry fruits that are pure and clean. The palate is juicy, medium waited, and superbly elegant. The wine shows a superb restraint that makes you keep coming back for more. The purity of the wine impresses, not manipulated or disguised, but bursting with red fruit with excellent clarity. Now for the big dogs, after the Valpolicella we opened some high end Brunello’s and Super Tuscans and what I love to do with a great value is I circle back to see if the wine stands up after wines that are much more expensive. Often the values taste like nothing, almost like colored water but not this wine. The Brigaldara’s quality and precision shone right through. This is real red wine at a great price. Important to note, this shipment is the only and the last of 2010 vintage. Read Tanzer’s description below. It’s a knockout!<br><br><b>Tasting Notes:</b> Bright ruby. Vibrant aromas of redcurrant, blackberry and candied violet on the knockout nose. Quite juicy on the palate, with floral red berry flavors given laser-like precision by lovely harmonious acidity. This very well balanced wine could probably use a bit more complexity but it's so clean and clear that you'll find it hard to put the glass down. It also puts most other Valpolicellas to shame, hence my high score. Very well done. 91pts
