The 1997 Recioto della Valpolicella TB is a fabulously layered, slightly sweet offering with huge levels of glycerin, extract, and fruit. I am not a big fan of Recioto della Valpolicella as it is usually too sweet and heavy, but this example is riveting. Concentrated and pure, yet neither overwhelmingly heavy nor cloyingly sweet, it is great stuff. Moreover, it will last for three decades or more. October 1991 WA 98
