Wine introduction
Why this wine matters
Valpolicella Ripasso occupies a distinctive position between fresh Valpolicella and the considerably richer Amarone della Valpolicella. Through the traditional Ripasso technique, the wine undergoes further contact with Amarone grape skins, adding body, flavour and complexity.
In the glass
Bright crimson to ruby red.
The nose opens with ripe cherry and juicy red fruit, followed by vanilla, chocolate and roasted coffee bean aromas.
The palate is soft and generous on entry, developing greater depth through the mid-palate with rounded tannins, integrated oak and concentrated cherry fruit. The Ripasso process provides additional richness and structure while retaining the freshness and balance expected from Valpolicella.
Medium to full-bodied with juicy fruit, rounded tannins and a smooth, structured texture.
Persistent and savoury, with lingering cherry, chocolate, coffee and gentle oak notes.
