The 2015 'Volpolo' is yet another outstanding showing from Massimo Piccin. Displaying a dark, inky color, this opens to inviting aromas of blackberries and dark cherries woven together with violet, tobacco, spices and crushed stones all taking shape. The palate is full, with excellent overall poise and balance, backed by a lovely velvety texture continues through the finish. While its youth is evident now, this is a beautifully made wine and I expect it to flesh out beautifully over the next few years. (Best 2018-2026) - September, 2017 (JD)
