Luciano Arduini Costelonghe Valpolicella Classico Superiore 2018 Wine Review

Natalie's Score: 88/100

Luciano Arduini 2018 Valpolicella Ripasso is a full-bodied, supple Italian red wine blend of 40% Corvina, 30% Corvinone, 20% Rondinella, 10% Oseleta and Croatina wine grapes. Grapes are hand-harvested and sorted, destemmed and gently pressed. Maceration lasts 15 days with manual punch downs and pump overs. The “Ripasso” technique is employed with Amarone grape skin contact for 10 days. Fragrant with aromas of ripe berry, dried red fruit, along with some smoky spice. On the palate, this Classico Superoire is concentrated with ripe blackberry, dark cherry, plum, dark chocolate, fine herbs, savoury spice and dusty tannins.
