The wine region of Valpolicella Ripasso
Venetian wine at the crossroads of Valpolicella and Amarone: signature Corvina as the royal red with Rondinella and Molinara — dense garnet robe and fleshy profile with notes of black cherry, cooked plum, cocoa, sweet spices and a balsamic touch, round tannins and a long finish. Emblematic method: second fermentation of Valpolicella on Amarone pomace ("ripasso"), gaining body, alcohol (13-15°) and complexity. DOC (2010), Veronese hills, limestone and basalt.
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: Licking
Operation consisting in sanitizing a barrel by introducing a wick of ignited sulphur which produces a release of sulphurous gas.
