Variety: Red Blend Veneto
Winery: Cottini / Valpolicella Classico Superiore Ripasso
This has subtle aromas of blackberry, pepper and tilled earth. The palate delivers a core of plum, blackcherry and licorice, uplifted with white pepper and orange zest accents. Its refreshing acidity makes it enjoyable now, but will also allow it to age modestly. Drink after 2016.
