A nice, juicy delivery showing ripe cherries, dried citrus, berries and a hint of figs and dark minerals. Medium-bodied and well textured on the palate. Quite well balanced, caressing and drinkable.

Nu eens geen gesmijt met zoeten, specerijen en eiken maar aaneengeregen subtiele fruitsmaken.
Dartele kersen, nadrukkelijk cassis, frambozen en aardbeien. Fris, verkwikkend en verrukkelijk.

Roasted herbs, salted plums, cherries and spice box on the nose. Some ash and tobacco. It’s medium- to full-bodied with sleek tannins. I like the ashy minerality. Corvina. Drink or hold.
It washes across the palate with soft textures and ripe wildberry fruits elevated by a tinge of citrus. Medium in length, it tapers off with a gentle tug of rounded tannins and herbal thrust.

A consistent Valpolicella Ripasso with aromas of dried berry fruit, plum cakes, orange peel and sweet baking spices. Chalky and nicely woven on the palate, with a medium body and a medium-long finish.

The palate is a leather jacket over a tailored suit, effortlessly cool and undeniably stylish. Whether you pair it with meat dishes or savor it alone, this Ripasso is a true taste of Valpolicella.
