Ca La Bionda Casal Vegri DECENNALE Valpolicella Classico Superiore, doc Rosso 2010	93 Vinous The 2010 Valpolicella Classico Superiore Casalvegri Decennale captivates with a woodsy mix of shaved cedar, wild savory herbs, curry leaf, underbrush and crushed black cherries. It’s silky-smooth yet finessed, with an ashen-salty style that gives way to red and black berries and exotic spice. There’s so much depth and character here, as the 2010 turns floral and lightly structured through the finale, and it leaves a flinty mineral tinge upon the senses. The Decennale matures for nine years in large, neutral oak cask. Frankly speaking, this may be one of the most interesting and exciting wines that I’ve tasted from Valpolicella in a very long time.
