The 2008 Valpolicella Classico Superiore TB is far from your standard Valpolicella. The wine is released later than most and sees a short refermentation on Amarone skins before 40 months in year-old tonneaux. Pretty tertiary aromas of cured meat and smoked bacon give the wine a savory, rich quality. In the mouth, it delivers thick layers of tobacco and barbecue smoke. What ultimately sets this wine apart is the balance it shows between its playful residual sugar and overall heft. Drink 2013-2018. The Bussola family has been producing top-notch Amarone for decades. In a truly touching family tradition, some of the older wines are named “BG” after uncle Giuseppe Bussola who founded the estate and adopted a traditional winemaking style. Recent expressions are named “TB” after Tommaso Bussola who is responsible for winemaking since 1983 and represents a modernist style. This flight of new releases, particularly the trio of 2007 Amarones, is exceptional. Tommaso’s sons Paolo and Giuseppe have both recently joined the winemaking efforts.

A beef carpaccio aroma quickly blows off, leading to a pure core of black cherry, crème de cassis, chocolate-covered espresso and ground anise in this layered, elegant red. Silky, presenting a lasting finish of graphite and smoky mineral. Drink now through 2020. 1,000 cases made, 250 cases imported.??–AN??Region: Italy / Valpolicella Classico Select to Add
