CorteGiara,ValpolicellaRipasso,Valpolicella,Veneto,Italy,2022

This Valpolicella is deep ruby red in colour with a beautiful concentration. On the nose, pronounced black cherry and black pepper aromas combined with sweet spice and herbal notes. The palate is rounded and full-bodied, with excellent structure and vibrant acidity; a harmonious wine that is both smooth and vivacious on the palate.

This wine was made using the traditional Veronese “Ripassoâ€?technique. The grapes were destemmed and gently crushed before being fermented in temperature controlled stainless-steel tanks, with daily pumping over. A second fermentation was started by adding Amarone pomace to the must, to add body and depth, continuing for eight to ten days. The wine was aged in stainless-steel tanks, and then in large Slavonian oak barrels prior to bottling.
