This is soft textured and more savory than sweet, with tension that mounts as inner rose and raspberry tones resonate over a core of saline minerals. Zesty acidity maintains fantastic balance as the 2020 finishes crisply refreshing, closing with a tinge of sour cherry. This is a blend of 85% Corvina and Corvinone, 10% Rondinella and 5% Barbera.

95 points John Gilman: "The 1983 and 1985 vintages from Emidio Pepe make great bookends, as both wines are fully mature and drinking at their peaks today. The ’85 is perhaps a touch more elegant, with the ’83 a shade deeper at the core and a bit more structured for the long haul.

The wine comes together beautifully in the glass, as the aromas and flavors gain breadth and dimension. Despite the rich style, there is nothing excessive or over-ripe here, just exceptional balance of ripe fruit as captured by a traditional approach to vinification.
