2019 Gerardo Cesari Bosan Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso, Veneto, Italy (750ml)

WINEMAKER'S NOTES:

This Valpolicella superiore, created from selected Corvina and Rondinella grapes using the ripasso technique, is born of experience in creating the famous Amarone Bosan. In the month of march it is kept in contact with the skins of Amarone Bosan for several weeks The resulting wine has a powerful, soft and velvety body with a predominant cherry bouquet, along with pleasant hints of cocoa, tobacco and vanilla. An excellent accompaniment to game, grilled meats and casseroles as well as very mature cheeses.

TASTING NOTES:

A rich, fruity valpo with dried berries and cherries and some chocolate and spice undertones. It’s full-bodied and flavorful. Medium soft tannins and balanced, lively acidity.
