Tommaso Bussola TB Valpolicella Classico Superiore 2016
This 2016 TB Valpolicella is a knockout — crisp cherries and lush berries wrap around a core of savory herbs, warm baking spices, mocha, and touches of burnt sugar and chalky minerals. Nimble and silky, this wine shows sneaky power as it unfolds on the palate to a lingering, rich finish. Enjoyable now with aerations, this Valpolicella has the stuffing to age nicely over the next few years. Tommaso uses the appassimento method for about half of the grapes in its TB Valpolicella Superiore, where the grapes partially dry before pressing to concentrate their flavors and texture.
