Monti Garbi Ripasso Valpolicella Superiore Corvina Blend

Fresh, red fruited, spicy and cedar-y on the nose. The body brings fine-grained tannins and that alluring combo of dried fruits: cranberry, strawberry, and raspberry marinating in the fresh tart juice of said fruits. All is overlayed with black tea and just a hint of bell pepper. Good gosh, it is exactly what I love about Ripasso: richness lurks, but freshness prevails.

My first Ripasso!!! Wow!!! Ruby colored with wood and cherry aromas. This is a big bold wine that is very smooth. It’s boldness reminds me of a Cabernet Sauvignon. Cherry, wood, and plenty of spice notes with a fairly long finish. Went well with our Leg of Lamb!

Lots of wood on top pf candied cherry

Fabulous dinner at Bar La Grassa. Complimented the gnocchi with cauliflower and orange as well as the New York strip. Great with cheese and crackers the next evening. A must add to my Italian go to’s.

Terrific. Had such a complex profile. Maybe a touch of sweet on the finish, but mostly spices and fruit. It reminded me of a digestivo from le Marche, called miletti. Distinctive spices.

Dried cherries, medium to full bodied. Delicious!

Very complex nose - easy finish. Great for dinner at Taverna.

Full bodied and delicious with a mild tannic finish

Beautiful

It's t's work wine and it's delicious. Great on its own and with food although we only had chips with it!
