I love ripassos. Concentrated raspberry jam on opening, soon settles down and integrates. Jam, metal, on the nose, remains sharp on the palate. Not that complex, but very good.

Fills the snout with a wet, warm, waft of rich chocolate cake, blueberries, and orange peel. Light grip of tannins; enough to pair with a little steak, or simply, drink without and enjoy the texture. Would drink again, and, again.
