Brigaldara Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore 2019

Description

Here’s a new discovery from Brigaldara. The 2019 Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore is bright and lifted with aromas that recall dried cherry, pear and apricot. This wine shows a lot of bright fruit definition with subtle hints of tobacco, spice and rose petal. The finish is smooth, polished and soft in terms of tannic structure. This blend of 55% Corvina, 25% Corvinone and 20% Rondinella could make a nice match for a steak au poivre. Drink date: 2021-2025. Score – 90. (Monica Larner, robertparker.com, Dec. 16, 2021)
