Quintarelli Valpolicella 1977
Obviously a bit of an experiment given the age. Got it through an auction. Have had this wine before up to like 15y old but nothing close to this. Fill level was high in the neck. And the cork looked quite good. And then the real test came, was it still any good? Color has become lighter and a bit translucent, very little brown color due to aging. Nose shows a lot of leather, and tobacco. And these same on the palette. Mostly more tertiary notes of leather, tobacco and balsamic. And acidity of sour cherry. Great experience! Would recommend to drink younger (but not too young). But great fun. [link] [comments] |
