We love a ripasso for cozying up to some hearty fare in the colder months!
From the winemaker: “What a feast for the eyes- the wine is mesmerizing scarlet color with a garnet sparkle, reminiscent of those celebrated ruby-red slippers. The nose is a potpourri of flowers- iris, and violets, almonds, with a core of macerated cherry, dark chocolate, and medicinal herb flavors wrapped nicely in spice. The delicious combination of flavors is elegant in the mouth- with a grippy and silky finish with a balance of oak and juicy acidity.”
45% corvina, 35% rondinella, 15% molinara, 5% negrara-pelara. 40-55 year-old vines. No fining or filtering. Valopolicella, Venbeto, Italy.
