Description
Organic red wine from Veneto, a Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore, 13.5% ABV, produced by Pasqua Vigneti e Cantine. Blend: 60% Corvina, 30% Corvinone, 10% Rondinella. 0.75L bottle, 2019 vintage. A wine born from the expert ripasso technique, where the Valpolicella ferments on the Amarone pomace, acquiring structure and complexity. After pressing and destemming, fermentation and maceration on the skins follow for 15 days, with pumping over and a controlled temperature of 20-24°C. The wine remains in steel tanks until February and is then passed back on the Amarone pomace. Aged in barriques and tonneaux for approximately 9 months, followed by 2-3 months of bottle aging. Notes of red fruit stand out on the nose with light balsamic and herbaceous notes. Intense ruby red color with garnet hues. On the palate it is balanced with notes of red fruits and strawberries, with a light toasting of the wood that gives softness, floral notes and vanilla.
