Valpolicella Ripasso DOC 2019 Casalforte

The Valpolicella Ripasso Casalforte comes from the vineyards located on the hills north of Verona.

It is obtained from the union of the indigenous Corvina Veronese, Rondinella and Corvinone grapes, selected for their sugar content. The vinification makes use of the innovative Ganimede fermentation system, which allows continuous mixing with the marc. In the colder months of the year, the base wine is poured on the Amarone marc according to the ancient "Ripasso" technique. Ageing takes place between steel and oak barrels for 12 months.

Ruby red wine, the nose expresses complex aromas of cherry and red fruits, accompanied by spicy notes. The taste is dry and full-bodied, pleasantly soft.

To be paired with roasts and grilled red meats, it goes well with a platter of aged cheeses.
