2003 Zenato Valpolicella 'Ripassa' Superiore
(about 1 year ago) buddy icon plonkdumper1 88.0/100
Tarry, black, animal nose. Smoked sausage, rotten mulberry. Inviting sweetness on the palate, lingers through to slightly chewy finish. A little slick for what it is. The tar aspect reminded a lot (distressingly) of Cote-Rotie or St. Joseph.

This introduced me to the wonderful world of Ripassa. This might be your best first step.

Yes, this is the perfect introduction to the ripasso style. Very easy to drink and at an OK price.
