- The 2016 Valpolicella Classico Superiore TB is sweetly seductive with minty herbs, medical cherries and hints of clove. This is a deeply textural yet cool-toned and remarkably pretty style of Valpolicella TB, with tart red fruits, minerals, cocoa, spice and touches of vanillin oak toward the close. It´s long and only ligthly structured, opulent in taste, but totally classic in feel. The 2016 is a gorgeous vintage for the Tomasso Bussola Valpolicella TB. Of note, 50% of the grapes used here go through a three-month appassimento. 93p årgang – 2016
- Bussola’s 2008 Valpolicella Classico Superiore TB is gordeous. Savory herb notes meld into dark cherry and plum in this fleshy, radiant Valpolicella. At five years of age the 2008 remains juicy, plumb and full of life. Expressive, deeply spiced nuances wrap around the finish. This is a terrific showing. 90p årgang – 2008
- A very rich Ripasso with herbcrusted tannins, all alpine-cool and suave, serving as a restraint. Pithy black cherry, camphor, sassafras and dried rose petals. The smooth, detailed tannins direct energetic length. All things considered, this is well done. Drink or hold. 93p årgang – 2017
- Dried berries and plums on the nose, with a refreshing hint of eucalyptus oil, following through to an elegant, medium to full body with engaging, fine tannins and good length. This is still in pristine form and drinkable now. Should continue to age nicely, too. 9p årgang – 2016
- Dried berries and flowers with plums and light raisins on the nose. Medium-to full-bodied, with sweetness and softness like a berry. Juicy. Drink now. 91p årgang – 2015
- Anelse lukket i næsen. Flot koncentration og sorte bær, peber, lakrids og vanilje i smagen. Rustik i udtrykket med en let syrlig afslutning. Drik 2020-2024. 89p. Årgang 2014
- Mørke krydrede noter i duften. Noget modenhed fornemmes med svampe, tobak og krydderier i smagen. En tæt og intens vin med krydret afslutning. 90p. Årgang 2013
- This medium- to full-bodied red is silky and harmonious, seamlessly knitting fine tannins with lightly juicy acidity and a pure beam of black cherry, medicinal herbs, graphite, milled white pepper and sambuca blossoms. Long, spiced finish. Drink now through 2030. 660 cases made. (Mar 31, 2023) 92p – årgang 2016
- An elegant red, with an aromatic thread of oak spice and mineral embroidering a pure note of crushed black cherry and flavors of dried fig, smoke and licorice. Fine-grained tannins firm the fresh, lingering finish. Drink now through 2023. 675 cases made. (Oct 31, 2018) 92p – årgang 2013
- Ripe currant and black cherry fruit is set in this medium-bodied red. Fresh and well-spiced, with leather, mocha and dried herb notes lingering on the lightly chewy finish. Very harmonious and expressive. Drink now through 2021. 1,200 cases made. (Oct 15, 2016) 91p – årgang 2011
- A tangy red, featuring a rich note of tarry mineral that underscores the lively flavors of wild cherry, red currant, underbrush and ground coffee. Ripe and juicy, with chalky tannins firming the finish. Drink now through 2020. 2,500 cases made. (Sep 30, 2015) 90p – årgang 2010
- Mørke kirsebær og chokolade præger duften af denne rødvin, mens smagen er stringent og elegant, fuld af frisk frugt og krydrede noter. Tanninerne er tilpas afrundede, og en fin syre gør vinen velegnet til mad. Med andre ord en meget dejlig vin, der fortjener at blive ledsaget af en ekstra god krydret kødret. Årgang 2011
- En forførende rødvin med en duft af moden frugt, kirsebær og strejf af lys chokolade. Smagen er intens og koncentreret med en fin balance mellem frugtsødme, tanniner og syre. Det er en kraftig vin, der så afgjort bør ledsages af mad – gerne en krydret oksebøf. Årgang 2011
- En fem år gammel rødvin, der er blød, rund, lækker og drikkemoden. Vinen, der er lavet på druekvas fra Amarone, har en kompleks frugtsmag med diskrete fadtoner. 15,5 procent er meget, men vinen har ingen spritkant. Årgang 2008
- Moden næse. Kraftig vin med bagte frugter, sorte kirsebær, kanel, krydderier, flot syre. Meget dominerende alkohol. Til meget krydret lidt stærk grillmad. Årgang 2008
- Violet. Mørk duft med kirsebær, træ, vanilje og modensødme i duften. Smagen er ren, mørk og fast med kirsebær og trænoter fra fadet. God, fast syre til at spille op mod sødmen. Superflot og tanninholdig i spids. Drik 2015-2018. 2 glas – årgang 2010
- The 2008 Valpolicella Classico Superiore TB is far from your standard Valpolicella. The wine is released later than most and sees a short refermentation on Amarone skins before 40 months in year-old tonneaux. Pretty tertairy aromas of cured meat and smoked bacon give the wine a savory, rich quality. In the mouth, it delivers thick layers of tobacco and barbeque smoke. What ultimately sets this wine apart is the balance it shows between its playfull recidual sugar and overall heft. Drink 2013-2018. 89p årgang 2008
- Forlaget Smag.dk: Mørk og svesket, med knastør smag af røg og hængt kød, med dybde og tyngde og med en meget personlig, tungsindig smag, der er milevidt fra populære Valpolicellaers vandige uhøjtidelighed. Man smager både bitterstoffer, aftryk af egetræ og en dæmpet garvesyre, men slet ingen sødme. Det er et lille mesterværk. Tænk, at en Valpolicella kan smage så godt. 17/20p – årgang 2005
