Oak adds a little spicy note, though. Medium-to full-bodied with a structured, linear feel to the palate. Not expansive, but firm and tight, precise and balanced. Good length, too. Nice to drink now, but should expand with bottle age.”\n\u003ch2\u003ePRESS REVIEW\u003c\/h2\u003e\nRated 92, James Suckling, October 2021\n“Not immediately recognizable as a Ripasso, because there’s zero dried-fruit character to the berries and cherries on the nose and palate.

This 2018 shows quite mature and pruney flavours, dark chocolate and dried cherries\/cranberries, and a supple, smooth texture with velvety tannins on a full-bodied (14% alc. declared) frame. Length and depth are very good. A superior ripasso to be sure, classy and composed, ready to enjoy.”\n\u003ch2\u003ePRESS REVIEW\u003c\/h2\u003e\nRated 90, Natalie MacLean, February 4, 2023\n“Cesari Bosan 2018 Ripasso Valpolicella Superiore is a dry, medium-plus-bodied red wine blend of 80% Corvina and 20% Rondinella grapes sourced from the Veneto wine region. Look for bright dark cherry, dark plum, cocoa and baking spice flavours vibrant and long on the palate.
