Recioto della Valpolicella 1970 is a historic sweet wine from the Veronese tradition, produced from dried grapes according to the classic Valpolicella method. It is a rare vintage bottle that represents the authentic style of Recioto from the 1970s, when production was still largely artisanal and tied to the region’s family-run wineries.
To the eye, it displays a deep garnet color with amber highlights, a clear sign of long, slow aging in the bottle. The aromatic profile is intense and ripe, with notes of cherry jam, prunes, figs, raisins, dark honey, and cocoa, enriched by hints of sweet spices, tobacco, and light oxidative notes typical of great vintage wines.
On the palate, it is smooth and enveloping, with a full-bodied sweetness that is still balanced by a lingering freshness. The texture is velvety, and the finish is long and warm, with notes of ripe fruit and spices. The 13% alcohol content helps keep it harmonious and stable over time.
The historic bottles of Recioto produced by Speri during this period are now considered important testaments to the tradition of the Valpolicella Classica region, prized above all for their historical value and their ability to evoke an era of Veronese viticulture that has now all but disappeared.
