Fidora Monte Tabor Valpolicella Ripasso 2016
Veneto, ItalyThis organic Monte Tabor Valpo blends 65% corvina, 25% corvinone, 10% rondinella from calcareous soils on the hillsides of Illasi Valley, in Veneto. The Ripasso comes through the second fermentation of Valpolicella wine in contact with the residual lees of Amarone. This process 2-3 weeks and is followed by 2 years' aging in French oak. Fully matured ripe cherry, black raspberry, leather fills the surprisingly fresh palate, with stony lifted acidity buoying this peppery full red. Tannins are worn smooth with time, guiding this to a milk chocolate finish. Feeling a little tired, and best taken now.Tasted: 10 November 2021Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| BC | $35.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
