Wine Enthusiast (90)- "Aromas of freshly picked cherries warming in the sun dusted with sweet baking spices and subtle hints of earth define the nose of this wine. Soft and easy on the palate with a freshness due to the mouthwatering acidity, keeps the lush fruit in balance as the more savoy notes of tobacco, dried herbs and savory spice find room to develop. Elegant and lifted on the finish."
James Suckling (92)- "Tightly packed aromas and flavors of plums, raspberries and strawberries on a firm, medium-bodied palate with very fine tannins and a tight finish. Structured and tight. Drinkable now, but will open up a bit with a year or so in bottle. Try from 2025."
Vinous Media (92)- "The 2020 Valpolicella Classico Superiore Ripasso is deeply floral, with hints of lavender and wet stone complicating its wild blueberry fruit. This washes across the palate with juicy waves of ripe wild berries and tactile mineral tones, as hints of citrusy spice collect toward the close. It finishes with admirable length, leaving a tart currant concentration and gently grippy tannins to resonate."
