The 2011 Bonazzi Valpolicella Ripasso is the classic definition of “Baby Amarone”. This immediately opens with aromas of ripe plum, raisin, herbs, chocolate, dusty minerals and licorice. It possesses a full voluptuous body that is kept fresh with a nice touch of acidity. The finish is long and mouth coating leaving behind layers of flavors. For readers who love Amarone, this is the perfect wine to drink as they age. (Best 2014-2021) - September, 2014 - (JD)
