Giuseppe Lonardi Valpolicella Ripasso

Perhaps the finest Ripasso we have ever tasted, this offering from Lonardi has dark, lush cranberry notes, with smoky chocolate that epitomizes the lovely characteristics of Corvina.  While more affordable, the complexity is reminiscent of Amarone.  It is a pleasing everyday Veneto wine that will keep up with bold foods or stand alone in the glass.
