Territory and wine style

This Italian red wine originates from vineyards located in selected areas of Valpolicella Classica, between Conca d’Oro, La Groletta, and De Buris. The blend combines Corvina Veronese, Rondinella, and Corvinone, central varieties for the tradition of the Verona territory. The Ripasso style enhances the structure of the Valpolicella and expands its complexity and depth, thanks to contact with the pomace of Amarone, which adds greater aromatic richness and a fuller sensation on the palate.
