Better than the D’alba — 2 months ago
Fresh, red fruited, spicy and cedar-y on the nose. The body brings fine-grained tannins and that alluring combo of dried fruits: cranberry, strawberry, and raspberry marinating in the fresh tart juice of said fruits. All is overlayed with black tea and just a hint of bell pepper. Good gosh, it is exactly what I love about Ripasso: richness lurks, but freshness prevails. — 7 months ago

Had the 2023 in January of 2025. First sip out of the glass was strange. Kind of sour fruit, butter and wood. Gave it time to breathe and swirled in the glass and then it was really good. Light fruits- dark cherry and blackberry. Hints of wood and leather in the finish. I always tend to jump right in. Have a decanter but don’t always head to it based on other people’s comments, I probably should have! But time in the glass was kind. Was a very interesting wine that I would love to have again. — 2 months ago
Truly a great value at $30. This Amarone is at the end of its life and is starting to turn brown, but it still delivered lovely bitter Amarone flavor. Deep dark fruit and chocolate. — 7 months ago

2021 vintage. A bit of everything. Esteemed producer. Excellent nose. Front-palate richness. Mid-palate power and presence. Pleasantly astringent and beyond substantial finish. I usually eschew Barbera d'Alba for the resto list but couldn't deny this one. Picked up two cases and may pick up more to have laying around for 1.5-2 years. At the ridiculous resto price of $26.67, I can't afford not to. So delicious. 01.29.25. — a month ago
