The wine region of Valpolicella Ripasso Classico
"Little Amarone" from Valpolicella Classico (Fumane, Marano, Negrar, San Pietro, Sant'Ambrogio): Valpolicella Superiore repassed on still-fermenting Amarone marcs — Corvina (45-95%), Corvinone (≤50%) and Rondinella (5-30%). Intense reds with aromas of candied cherry, ripe red fruits, dried fruits, vanilla and wood spices, medicinal notes. Silky and full-bodied palate, fine tannins and long finish. Venetian DOC, gourmet alternative to Amarone.
The wine region of Veneto
World star of Prosecco: fresh, light Glera sparklers with notes of pear, green apple and white flowers, fruity, convivial bubbles. Veronese reds from Corvina and Rondinella: light, crisp Bardolino, fruity Valpolicella, opulent, concentrated Amarone DOCG (black cherry, chocolate, raisin) from dried grapes. Mineral, almondy Soave (Garganega) whites, fresh Pinot Grigio. 97,500 ha, Italy's largest production.
The word of the wine: Draft liquor (champagne)
After blending, the wine is bottled with a liqueur de tirage (a mixture of sugar and wine) and a yeast (selected yeasts). The yeast attacks the sugar and creates carbon dioxide. The fermentation, which lasts about two months, is prolonged by an ageing period (15 months minimum in total). The bottle is capped (some rare vintages are capped with a staple and a cork).
