Giuseppe Lonardi Valpolicella Ripasso Classico Superiore DOC 2019

$24.99
“Ripasso” refers to the re-passing of Valpolicella Classico through the pressed, raisined skins used for making Amarone. These skins are aromatic, high in alcohol and flavor, and are very valuable; that’s why true Ripasso is a small production wine. Some brands attempt to short-cut the process by adding residual sugar – but not Giuseppe. This offering from Lonardi has tiers of lush cherry, cranberry, and chocolate, along with the streamlined structure that epitomizes the native Corvina. / Varietals List: 75% Corvina, 20% Rondinella, 5% Molinara / Alcohol: 14% / Farming Practices: Organic (non-certified); dry-farmed; grapes picked by hand / Color: Deep ruby red / Nose: Dried, dark cherry and fig with earthy undertones / Palate: Medium-full bodied, with soft layers of earth, cherry, chocolate and spice / Finish: Delightful, long finish
