Discover the wine production behind Zenato Ripassa Della Valpolicella
Zenato Ripassa Della Valpolicella takes center stage as the charming little brother of the famous Amarone. The magic begins when a portion of the Zenato Amarone must is used to create this enchanting Zenato Ripassa Della Valpolicella. This gives the wine a seductive burst of fruit and a delicate rise in alcohol. This fascinating method of "passing" over the must lends not only its name but also its distinctive character to Zenato Ripassa Della Valpolicella. With Amarone, the best part of the harvest is carefully dried to become currants, rich in fruit and sugars. These are then converted into alcohol, resulting in naturally high alcohol levels. After a minimum of five years of aging—two years in oak and another three years in bottle—Zenato Ripassa Della Valpolicella is ready for your tasting pleasure.
