Milk chocolate, red cherries, cola, but nicely balanced with ample acidity and tannins that are rich; earth comes through a bit on the palate, a little toasty oak too. Really pretty Ripasso!

Leaning towards the dried fruit side, with a bit of pruney note, it’s soft on the palate and pretty full. Good acids balance it. Alcohol in check. Nice!

Prototypical dried cherry, plum, dried herbs, black licorice and coffee. The volcanic growing soils adds an interesting scorched influence to the wood and orange peel flavors. Medium bodied and easy to drink. Perennial favorite

Not pleasant. No fruit left, no complexity and very short in palette.

Soft and pleasurable Ripasso. Sweet red cherries, berries, prune and plums. Nice present texture to the wine with some tannin. Just enjoyment

Big aromatics. Full and ripe with nice tannin, dark fruit, minerality and a soft texture. Pure and clean.
