Vibrant ruby red color. Ripe red fruit combines well with herbaceous spices. It has a beautiful structure and velvety on the palate.

An excellent pairing is with red meats, ribs, barbecue, pasta with meatballs, rich cheeses, or even on its own. For the best results, open the wine for 30 minutes before drinking to allow it to breathe.

Ripasso Valpolicella is made by re-passing (Ripasso) Valpolicella wine with leftover grape skins and seeds from fermented Amarone with extended maceration. Many of the rich complexities of Amarone, like the color, tannins, and softness that contribute to the drying of the grapes, are passed on to Valpolicella using this method.
