About Ripasso
Ripasso is a wine from Verona’s country tradition and is made using a very old winemaking practice called «ripasso». This technique involves reintroducing the young Valpolicella wine to the skins at the end of the fermentation of Amarone. In Ripasso there is the freshness and drinkability of the Valpolicella, but also the richer and more concentrated sensations of chocolate and sour cherry from the dried grapes.
