Description and technical sheet
Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore DOC Ripassa by Zenato celebrates the Venetian tradition of "ripasso." Produced from a blend of Corvina, Rondinella, and Oseleta, it is crafted by passing the base Valpolicella over Amarone pomace. This method enriches the wine with body, complexity, and structure. The vineyards are located in the classic Valpolicella region, characterized by limestone soils and a temperate climate. Aging in oak barrels for 18 months, followed by 6 months in the bottle, ensures a balance of power and elegance. Ripassa is ideal for pairing with meat dishes, roasts, and aged cheeses.
