Here's a pleasant, soft, simple, slightly sweet ripasso, with all of the expected raisined and chocolate flavours....

Medium garnet in colour with medium+ intensity.
Positives: Very smooth albeit not complex Valpolicella but still delicious wine. You'll find classic Valpolicella notes of cedar, dark chocolate, raisins, plums, dark cherry, nutmeg, cinnamon & leather. Medium body, medium to medium minus tannins, good acidity with long length.
Negatives: Be careful not to inhale the aromas too quickly as the high alcohol vapor may knock you out. I kid, but it is really strong.
Drink now on its own or pair it with BBQ beef ribs.
