    Elegant and streamlined, this opens with subtle tones of dried fruit, prune, raisin and cassis. It also delivers savory layers of spice and cured meat flavors, with a note of tobacco and a spicy pinch of white pepper.

    Ripasso Le Quare shows very nice integration of bright fruit tones such as cherry and cassis set against smoky notes of spice and chocolate derived from careful oak aging. The wine also shows freshness with a pleasant, medium mouthfeel that is never over the top.

    Instead of brawn and muscle, this ruby Ripasso offers elegance and finesse. The nose is redolent of polished black stone, Indian spice and loads of dried cassis and wild berry. There's a playful hint of sweet almond and cinnamon at the end.
