Description

From the dried grapes used for the production of Amarone, the best selection of Valpolicella is refermented immediately after fermentation to begin the second fermentation that enriches the alcohol content, colour, extracts and aromatic bouquet. Ripassa represents one of the most significant wines in the company's oenological evolution.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1960
  • Oenologist: Alberto Zenato
  • Bottles produced: 2.000.000
  • Hectares: 95
95 hectares of top vineyards in Lugana and Valpolicella’s "classic zone." Two faces: One white, the other red, both emblems of high-quality wines that are born through a visceral passion for the land, through respect for time, through a family tradition that has championed local grape varieties for more than 60 years.

1960 – San Benedetto di Lugana. It’s here that the heart of Sergio Zenato started to beat. His story is made of passion and hard work; a deep connection to his land and his people; entrepreneurial ability and openness to innovation and new vinification techniques and investment in native grape varieties.

A story that stretches from the banks of Lake Garda to the hills of nearby Valpolicella where the estate’s reds are born from sunny vineyards of Corvina and Rondinella in Costalunga in Sant’Ambrogio commune. Read more

Origin Valpolicella Area (Verona).
Wine making The manually harvested grapes are destemmed and macerated in stainless steel fermenters for 10 to 12 days. Once the alcoholic fermentation is complete, the new wine is separated from the skins by means of a soft press and stored in steel tanks until January, when the dried grapes are pressed to produce Amarone. At this point, the Valpolicella is refermented on the Amarone marc with a 7/8 day soak at a temperature of 25°C - 28 °C.
Aging In tonneaux for 18 months, followed by light bottle ageing for 6 months.
Allergens Contains sulphites
