Bure Alto is a pretty Ripasso with well integrated notes of spice, tar, prunes and dry fig. There’s a touch of sweetness at the center surrounded by a soft and yielding texture.

Here’s a meaty and thick Amarone from the beautiful Valpolicella area of northern Italy with aromas of ripe currants, peppercorn, bacon fat, cola, resin, rhubarb and cedar. The density is impressive and the tannins are big and thick—almost too much so.

Sweet tobacco and overripe cherry open the nose of this thick, jammy Amarone. The wine exhibits a syrupy, bold mouthfeel with lingering tones of smoke, beef jerky and spice on the finish.

Here’s a less formal expression of Ripasso that would work nicely next to a home cooked meal of meatloaf or pasta with meat ragù. The wine shows integrated acidity next to bright aromas of cherry and white chocolate.
