Quintarelli, Valpolicella Classico Superiore Vintage:2003 This year was rainy untilThe 2003 is an unusually bold, ripe version of the Valpolicella Classico Superiore. Black cherries, plums, mocha and spices all flesh out in this exuberant wine. The warmth of the vintage is felt in the wines contours and early appeal.
