A beautiful Ripasso that will bring as much excitement to your senses as the thought of adding this beautiful wine will bring to you. No wine collection is complete without this fantastic beverage.

A quiet wine, this understated champion deserves more fanfare. This Ripasso will bring excitement to your pantry and wine-tasting sessions. This wonderful wine is, of course, produced utilizing the 3 main Valpolicella grapes: Corvina Veronese, Rondinella, and Molinara. What makes Ripasso so unique is the inclusion of leftovers from grape flesh and seeds during the maceration process.

The result is a bold, tannic, slightly sweet (offset by the inherent acidity of the wine), and soft wine that is a great way to finish off the day. To the eye: pinks and purples will massage the eyes. Violet hues shine through in the right light. To the nose: the same can be said for the bouquet - pink and purple flowers will assuage the nose. A veritable massage. On the palate: dry and fresh, with hints of chocolate and vanilla. Thoughts of red berries and fruits are also present.

This wonderful wine is great with steak and full-bodied main courses. Try pairing this with Steak Pizzaiola. This wonderful dish, served with sirloin steak, tomatoes, garlic, onions, and wine - to name a few - is the perfect, hearty stew to pair with this wine. It’s like they were made to be paired together.
