La Giaretta Valpolicella Ripasso Classico Superiore

Ripasso derives precisely from the particular winemaking process that involves a second fermentation of the classic Valpolicella on the pomace of an Amarone. This step gives the wine greater color, structure and alcohol content. The resulting wine is not as massive as an Amarone, but it is certainly not a shy wine.

This one showcases aromas of red fruits, raisins, and hints of coffee and tobacco leading into a rich, ripe, and pleasure-bent palate. For those who love Amarone but hate paying the price, give this a try.
