Description

Ripasso 883314

This delicious wine is woodsy and dark in nature, smoldering up with nuances of raspberry, autumnal spice and underbrush. This is texturally deep and velvety with a pretty acid-driven lift, as ripe red and black berries wash across the palate, complemented by sweet spices. It leaves a saturation of floral-tinged fruits and hints of cinnamon to linger while finishing long yet fresh. It’s a fine and beautifully balanced Ripasso. Drinking window: 2022-2027”
