Zenato Ripasso

Deep ruby-red in color, this wine shows intense aromas of blackberries and black currants underscored by aromas of spice, pepper, and a hint of leather. On the palate, it is smooth and viscous with well-balanced acidity and alcohol.

Blend: 80% Corvina, 10% Rondinella, 10% Oseleta

An excellent Ripasso. A full-weighted wine that is polished by a slick veneer of winemaking. Licorice root, violet, clove, sassafras, and dark cherry accents to the oak. The sweetness strays into kirsch territory, yet the tannic clamp ensures that it’s not excessive. This is a wine for those who like power and polish.
