The 2005 Valpolicella Classico Superiore Ca’ Carnocchio –also a ripasso-style Valpolicella – flows onto the palate in a rich, seamless expression of perfumed dark fruit, spices and new leather, revealing tons of harmony. The Ca’ Carnocchio is 70% Corvina, 10% Rondinella, 10% Cabernet, 5% Sangiovese and 5% Croatina that spent 18 months in French oak, 80% new. This is a gorgeous set of wines from Le Salette, capped off by a magnificent 2004 Amarone Pergole Vece. Importer: Vias Imports, New York, NY; tel. (212) 629-0200
