| Wine list | Valpolicella Classico Ripasso |
From the vinification in blend of Corvina 40%, Corvinone 40%, Rondinella 20%, all the grapes of the company are certified organic and for some years the funds are conducted according to the principles of biodynamic agriculture. The origin is the classic one of the Val di Mezzane, in Veneto. For the vinification of this Valpolicella the fermentations start spontaneously in oak vat where then in February the wine is "Ripassato" on the pomace still swollen and rich in Amarone must. This traditional technique and the use of barrels by 14 hl. in cherry, where the wine ages for about 24 months, give it a sweet and intense aroma of ripe fruit.
