Critics reviews

Eric Guido 89/100

The 2021 Valpolicella Ripasso Classico Superiore Ripasso Tenuta Lena di Mezzo opens with an herbal thrust that gives way to rose petals and wet stone. It's soft-textured, with a cascade of ripe blackberry fruits complemented by violet inner florals. This tapers off with medium length and an air of lavender.

Drink 2024 - 2026

This is showing aromas of walnuts, dried cherries, stewed plums and spice box. Nicely complex and chewy, with a medium to full body and a tasty, persistent finish.
