Montigoli Valpolicella Ripasso 2021 Blush Merlot and Cabernet FrancThis rich Veneto red opens with aromas of ripe cherry, dried cranberry, and sweet spice, leading to flavors of blackberry, plum, cocoa, and hints of tobacco and vanilla. Made in the traditional Ripasso method, where the wine is refermented on the grape skins from Amarone production, it gains added richness, depth, and complexity. Smooth and full bodied, it finishes with velvety tannins and exceptional depth. 91 Points, Luca Maroni.
