Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Lovely and complex. Aromas of currant, raisin, leather, smoke and spice. Full bodied and smooth, with bright acidity balancing ripe, dried fruit flavours, spicy and smoky notes. Enjoy this with lamb or other rich meat dishes.
Sartori's Corte Brà 2011 is a deep, dark and robust Amarone della Valpolicella Classico from the Veneto wine region with a rich nose of ripe blackberries, smoke and spicy on the nose with black cherry compote, blackberry, leather, tobacco and sweet cake spice flavours on the palate. Balanced with a long finish. Pair with a roast beef. - Community Wine Reviews

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
