Giuseppe Quintarelli Recioto della Valpolicella Classico Riserva Le Marogne

First note: cloudy pale white oak/mahogany color. Indescribable (in a transcendent way) nose and palate. 98. I revisited to add some other thoughts and captured: Dried Italian herbs, slightly medicinal (in a curative way), sweet in style, but dry on the palate, long as the day, very savory, finishes with strong tannin. Wine of the year so far - I can only hope to see a bottle again in my lifetime.
