Often referred to as a "Poor man's Amarone, this Ripasso is quite good. Light and fruity. Vals are a little on the sweeter side but this has a nice balance and nose worthy. Not a bad price point either. Enjoy!

Jun 4th, 2017Expected, concentrated fruit introduction, rounding into valpolicella brightness. Most importantly, a very clean alcohol, elevating it from its more common brethren. Cheese, olives, fruit, cured meats. Done.
