Score 94/100 · Drink 2024-2034, Eric Guido, Vinous, Apr 2022

The 2016 Recioto della Valpolicella Classico opens with a seductive mix of medicinal cherries and strawberries giving way to exotic spices and a dusting of mocha. This impresses with a tart raspberry burst up front and a spicy twang of citrus, bright acids and saline-minerals. The 2016 is a total wine of contrasts, finishing staining and long, while leaving the mouth watering for more. It’s incredible to think that this maintains ninety-three grams of residual sugar, because it’s nearly imperceptible. Stunning.
