Tedeschi La Fabriseria Valpolicella DOC Classico Superiore 2007

The premium of the Valpolicella wines from Tedeschi is the 'La Fabriseria' - a 'modern wine with an ancient flavour'.

Berry fruits, licorice root with hints of almond.  Great depth and harmony.  On the palate it's full, with rich languid red berry fruit laced with some plum sweetness supported by clean slightly greenish spicy tannins that have a core of velvet to them, and flow into a clean bright finish with tannic underpinning. It's quite elegant, but also very, very young, and though one could drink it with rich red meats now, it will richly reward those with the patience to let it age for 3-10 years.
