(10/30/2009) "The 2006 Fratta jumps from the glass with tons of vibrant fruit. Roasted coffee beans, graphite, minerals, cassis and French oak develop in the glass, adding further complexity. Although the 2006 comes across as somewhat slender, the wine possesses outstanding length and a refined, polished finish. Fratta is 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Merlot that spent 12 months in French oak. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2021."

Monte Zovo Amarone della Valpolicella 2013
93
Wine Advocate
(5/31/2017) "The 2013 Amarone della Valpolicella hits all the right buttons in terms of fruity softness and richness. This is a densely extracted red wine that offers a full court of aromas with plump cherry, dried blackberry, bitter chocolate and exotic spice front and center. The mouthfeel is immensely rich and succulent with superbly round and soft fruit flavors. If you love Amarone, this is a great new find."

Ilatium "Campo Leon" Amarone della Valpolicella 2013
92+
Our Score
(2/2019) Checking in at 16%, the Ilatium "Campo Leon" Amarone is a huge wine! Powerfully concentrated, it delivers flavors of smoky dark black fruits and coffee along with hints of new French and American oak. A blend of 70% Corvina, 20% Rondinella and the rest Croatina and Oseleta, it would be a brilliant match with slow-cooked winter stews and hearty soups!

Vignalta "Marrano" Veneto Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot 2010
New low price! Regular Vin Chicago retail - $28.99!
92+
Our Score
(9/2018) The Vignalta estate in Veneto has bottled one of the most delicious and complex sub-$30 Cabernet/Merlot blends we've had in many months! Grown in volcanic soils, this elegant, eight-year-old wine could carry a $60 price tag if labeled Pauillac or St. Estephe and no one would bat an eye. This complex, earthy, mineral-driven red offers a nuanced combination of green tones, leather, pepper, plum and cassis. Drink now and over the next 10+ years. A seriously cool, long and impressive wine.

Antiche Terre Venete Amarone Della Valpolicella 2016

Wine Spectator
(10/15/2019) "A rich red, with creamy tannins and juicy acidity, showing an expressive range of fig cake, sun-dried black cherry, coffee liqueur, dried thyme and smoke flavors. A balanced crowd-pleaser. Drink now through 2027. Tasted twice, with consistent notes."

Buglioni "Il Bugiardo" Valpolicella Classico Superiore Ripasso 2015
92+
Wine Advocate
(9/30/2019) "The 2015 Valpolicella Classico Superiore Ripasso Il Bugiardo is a very exuberant, very full and fruit-forward wine. Showing ripe, sweet and dark fruit with sweet spice at the end, this would spread holiday cheer with a pumpkin ravioli. The wine has a silky-smooth texture, with a nice entry into the mouth, all framed by soft tannins. This Valpolicella sees only a light appassimento and a partial ripasso in small barrels. Drink Date 2019 - 2024."

Az Agr Costadila "450 SLM" Colli Trevigiani Frizzante Bianco 2015
91
Our Score
(10/2018) The brainchild of the late Ernesto Cattel and a handful of partners, Costadilla represents a throwback to an older time, embracing traditional methods and bringing them back to life. Made from the four traditional grapes of Prosecco: Glera, Prosecco, Bianchietta and Verdizo (the latter three have fallen into obscurity). The name of the wine "450 SLM", is in reference to the elevation of the vineyards. The grapes are dried and left briefly in contact with the skins, resulting in a beautiful burnt orange hue that is reminiscing of the setting sun. This is a beautifully executed traditional Prosecco that will redefine how you view the category.

(5/31/2017) "A lovely, fragrant dessert wine, with honeysuckle and spice notes playing off rich accents of glazed apricot and salted caramel. Bright and mouthwatering, delivering a long, rich and creamy finish. Drink now through 2025. 1,500 cases made."

Buglioni "L'Imperfetto" Valpolicella Classico Superiore Ripasso 2014
90
Our Score
(8/2018) The Amarone and Valpolicella Ripasso bottlings from Buglioni have been some of the finest we have ever featured. We were recently presented their 2014 Valpolicella Classico, labeled "L'Imperfetto." We loved it so much that we had to squeeze it in one day before going to press on our August newsletter. What's neat about this bottling is that, even though it's not Ripasso, a portion of the grapes are left out to dry, imparting a touch of the Ripasso and Amarone signature style. Prior to release, the wine saw 12 months aging in stainless steel followed by six months in barrel. This treatment has allowed the freshness of the delicious ripe fruit to be preserved while softening the palate and adding wonderful complex nuances of baking spice, leather and both red and black licorice on the finish. This full and generous red should be enjoyed with hearty pasta dishes and hard cheeses. Bravo!
