Love this wine. Acidic, earthy, but ripe almost jammy flavors. The act of making this type of wine is amazingly cool process. Had with chicken parm and gnocchis.

Dark, dirty ruby in color with a purplish dark rim.
Fruity on the nose with cherries, currants, wild flowers, vanilla, coke, licorice, pencil lead, leather, earth, minerals and black pepper. A great inviting nose.
Medium plus in body and smooth, with medium plus acidity and nice legs.
Dry on the palate with cherries, red currants, blueberries, vanilla, wood, earth, licorice, pencil lead, forest floor and black pepper.
Medium plus on the finish with smooth, full tannins, spices and tart cherries.
What a Great red wine this is. Great by itself or with Italian food. A Nice, inexpensive Amarone look alike.
14% alcohol by volume.

Очень темный цвет. Джемовые ноты, красный апельсин, чернослив, сухое дерево, чай. Плотные танины, отличный рот, много ягод, отличная кислотность. Насыщенный образец, при этом ровный. Сухое дерево.

Deep and lingering red forest berry notes, caressed by soft tannins and a hint of sweet in what is otherwise a distinctively dry wine. A fine example of a Ripasso. A bit fuller than a regular valpolicella, but not heavy and overbearing like uncle Amarone. Balance.

Dec 18th, 2014Another cellar raid. Prob a gift bottle that was left alone. Probably past it’s prime but it’s enjoyable nonetheless. Very earthy, still some dark fruits, cherry & plum. Some hints of menthol and lifty stuff like that but nothing too intense.

Leathery, dark berries, great finish when given time to breathe. Really good value for price.

Took about an hour to open up, but oh boy when it did...😀 Black cherry juice, figs, white pepper and leather all on a medium bodied frame. This is an exceptional wine.
