Zonin Ripasso Valpolicella Superiore 2008
Pedemonte Valpolicella, Verona, Veneto, ItalyThanks to its association with Negrar Zonin's ripasso is typically rich on the palate thanks to its secondary ferment on dry Amarone skins. The nose is full with black fruit notes and liquorice with bits of cocoa powder and coffee. Similar flavours grace the palate with soft tannins and an easy-drinking finish. Try this with fresh pasta in a Bolognese sauce.Tasted: 16 May 2011Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $19.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
