A consistent Valpolicella Ripasso with aromas of dried berry fruit, plum cakes, orange peel and sweet baking spices. Chalky and nicely woven on the palate, with a medium body and a medium-long finish.

It's soft textured, with a cascade of ripe black berry fruits complemented by violet inner florals. This tapers off with medium length and an air of lavender.

This is showing aromas of walnuts, dried cherries, stewed plums and spice box. Nicely complex and chewy, with a medium to full body and a tasty, persistent finish. Drink now.
A lovely touch of ripe Mirabelle blends with chalk and slight smoke on the nose. Swirling brings out ripe lemon zest. Brightness and juiciness define the palate, where chalk and oak combine.

Terrific balance of ripe, concentrated citrus fruit, creaminess from maturation on the lees and cool, chalky minerality. Quite soft acidity, but a lovely minty freshness.

Eerste rang voor liefhebbers van gedroogd geel fruit, een zweem Turks fruit, goudrenet, fijne witlof- en grapefruitbitters, een vanilleknipoog, een stralende mineraliteit en met een krijtdroge finale.
