Grape Variety

Corvina

Producer

Montigoli

Appealing cocoa, chocolate and cherry aromas lead to a supple smooth palate. This is a round concentrated wine with a layered texture and nice depth. To produce Ripasso – meaning “repassed” – grapes are picked and fermented at harvest in October. Several months later, in February, the wine is added to the skins and lees leftover from making Amarone: a second fermentation occurs giving the wine more flavour and body. The wine was then matured in oak for nine months.
