Slightly cloudy color and big tears from the alcohol and glycerine liquor texture of the #ripasso nose is evolved and perfect for #italian food with scents of tomatoes tomato stew balsamic and bay leaves. It has a slightly scratchy touch on the palate and is drier than what I expected from a ripasso. Where it gains points is in its complexity and bold elegance.
