Solid Ripasso. Bigger than what you would expect. Plenty of red fruit, and fresh acidity.

Made from Corvina, Rondinella and Negrara grapes, Deep Ruby with aromas of sweet dried berry fruits and pepper spice. On the palate ripe blackberry, currants and sweet cherry with complex spice. Well balanced with acidity and alcohol, full-body with soft tannins on long finish. Nice value.

Thought this wine was just ok. Hubby didn’t like it. Lighter than expected for this style. Quite musty and acidic bite. Sweeter than I care for. Probably won’t buy again.

Ordered with dinner at Va Bene in Duluth. Fabulous with our dinner selection. This will become a standard in my wine rack.

Juicy loosie lose your goosie. But also dry, go figure. This is a proper Ripasso made by a good winery that has been doing it well for many years.
I'll be back.
