Description
Pa’Riondo, with its intense, deep, rich ruby colour is an International expression of its area of origin. The traditional Ripasso technique consists in double-fermenting a young Valpolicella on the skins, still impregnated with sugars and yeast cells, of the semi-dried grapes previously used to make the Amarone. After three years maturation, the wine becomes more harmonious and velvety. This is the ideal time to enjoy it.

Wine making | The finest selection of Valpolicella of the current vintage is pumped onto the skins of the dried grapes that have just been used to make the Amarone. These are still impregnated with natural sugar and yeast cells, and so set off a second fermentation, thus increasing the wine’s level of alcohol, as well as enriching its colour, extract and aromas and thus improving its aging potential. |
Aging | 15 months in barrique and tonneaux, the wine displays remarkable balance and structure. It has also acquired new aromatic tones and its colour has become completely stable. It spends a further 6 months in bottle prior to release. |
