Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore DOC

The authentic art of winemaking lies in its double fermentation production technique. The double fermentation of the Ripasso is a unique process that gives the wine a greater concentration of flavors and aromas than traditional Valpolicella wines, with a slight hint of spiciness. The first fermentation takes place with Valpolicella Superiore in our cellar, and the second fermentation takes place with Amarone marc. Valpolicella Superiore and Amarone combine to form a perfect marriage of freshness, elegance, and structure.
