Not a hit at a family gathering. Very barnyard. That blew off after being open, but still not great.

I really enjoyed this wine. Very smooth with a great finish. I need to get another bottle.

Vibrant on the nose - blackberry and earth with hints of liquorish and maraschino cherries. On the pallet - quickly jumps into bed with you. Dark fruit with leather and oak.

Beautiful, over delivers for the intro wine club price of $6! Tight dry fruit of plum skins, figs, prunes. Nice mellow to dry long finish. Perfecto for summer outdoor dining! On its own or paired with my mesclun salad & grilled sausage.

Valpolicella Ripasso. Full flavor. Says wine passed over dry amarone grapes, then stored in oak barrels.

One of my favorite ripassos. Earthy, floral, black fruit. I understand some may disagree w the flavor, and to each their own, but this is well made wine and i love the taste. My cellar is full but i will get a case of this..

First glass - decent as a table wine. Subsequent glasses (as wine was aerated) were much more tasty. Full fruit, but light with easy tannins and pleasant finish.
