Musella Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso DOC 2016 sweet wine Pimpanela means 'peony' in OccitanThis style of Valpolicella sees some air dried, raisined fruit included in the blend to add spice, body and texture. "The 2016 Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso shows a dusty expression of blackberries, cloves and violets. Its silky in texture, contrasted by sharply focused acids and bright red fruits, as peppery florals form up toward the close. This tapers off saline and fresh with a bump of residual acid and savory spice." Eric Guido, Vinous
