This is a pleasant, standard ripasso with correct sour cherry, marzipan and slightly earthy flavours. It's medium...

A decent ripasso. Earthy, plummy, nutty aromas, a slight fake-leather whiff. Full bodied, spicy, sweet, densely fruited, oaky with dry tannins. Good warm finish. A good wine at a good price. A small section of Ruben's dramatic "The Martyrdom of St Livinus" on the label. Cool.
