The 2003 Recioto di Soave Vigneto La Broia is a compelling dessert wine. Full-bodied, unctuous and ample on the palate, it reveals dried apricots, figs, honey and roasted nuts with plenty of style and enough body to stand up to all but the most robust cheeses. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2018.
Marco Sartori is the young, ambitious proprietor at Roccolo Grassi. Unlike many of his colleagues, Sartori leaves the fruit for his Amarone to dry for a shorter time as he believes this approach allows him to achieve concentration in the vineyard while allowing the wines to remain fresh in the bottle. The Soave and Valpolicella are made from the estate’s younger plants while the oldest vines are used for the Amarone and the Reciotos. Sartori prefers to age his wines predominantly in French oak. This is a beautiful set of wines from one of Veneto’s most promising young producers.
