2022	Domaine Alain Voge	Cornas Les Vieilles Fontaines	The tiny production 2022 Cornas Les Vieilles Fontaines comes from the site of the estate’s oldest Syrah vines, an 80-year-old vineyard planted in granite soil. It's a sensational looking barrel sample that's going to rank with the top handful of wines in the appellation. Cassis, blueberries, spring flowers, game, and liquid violet notes are just some of its nuances, and it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a layered, broad mouthfeel, and ripe yet certainly present tannins. It's going to need 3-5 years of cellaring but will evolve for two decades.	Jeb Dunnuck	95-97		2024-12-05

2019	Tezza	Valpolicella Superiore 'Brolo delle Giare'	Aromas of rich, glossy red berries, candied plums, dark walnuts and chocolate. Medium- to full-bodied on the palate with good intensity of flavors and a firm, medium-long finish. Drink or hold.	James Suckling	91		2024-12-03
2020	Tezza	Valpolicella Superiore 'Brolo delle Giare'	A ripe and juicy expression that’s a little less concentrated than the 2019, but this has traded the jammy fruit for better freshness.

2021	Tezza	Valpolicella Ripasso Valpantena Superiore	A very good Valpolicella that shows richness of fruit and hints of chocolate, hibiscus and pine cones.

2018	Tezza	Amarone della Valpolicella Valpantena	Spiced dried berries, citrus, dark chocolate, waffles and tar on the nose. Pretty full-bodied on the palate, with dried ripe berry fruit and figs lingering in a long and still juicy finish. Chocolate and bittersweet accents at the end. Drinkable now, but can hold well for another few years.	James Suckling	93		2024-12-03
2016	Tezza	Amarone della Valpolicella Valpantena Riserva 'Brolo delle Giare'	Chocolate, rich sweet blackberries, bark, roasted spices and touches of moist earth and balsam on the nose. Structured and full-bodied with dusty tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Complex, concentrated and really long. Pretty hedonistic in style. Drinkable now, but it can keep holding.	James Suckling	93		2024-12-03
