Ripassa Ripasso Della Valpolicella Superiore Doc
After pressing the dried grapes used to make Amarone, Valpolicella wine is passed over the still warm marc of Amarone. A second alcoholic fermentation begins which increases the alcoholic content making the wine richer in colour and bouquet.
Grape varieties: Predominantly Corvina with a small percentage of Rondinella and Oseleta
Ageing: 18-24 months
Nose: Intense, elegant and persistent with hints of black cherry and plum
Palate: Harmonious and velvety with good structure
