2003 Allegrini Valpolicella Classico

Intense but simple nose of crunchy cherries and almond extract. Angular and vibrant in the mouth. Needs lots of exposure to air to calm down. Not bad, but not my style of Valpo. 84. About $10 or $11, I think, at Spec's (all stores).

Totally agree with the need to calm it down. It wrote about the 2004 here and that was what struck me the most about it.
It's clear you used to do this for a living. I wish I could be so precise and accurate with my reviews. Nice blog!
