DC 88Producer Tasting Notes
The process makes for a refined and concentrated wine, extremely smooth and velvety, with vibrant red fruit aromas. On the palate, it delivers fruity notes and elegant tannin with hints of chocolate and spice. Ripassa has played a highly important role in the Zenato winery’s evolution over the years.Winemaking
As soon as the dried grapes for the winery’s Amarone have completed fermentation, a top selection of Valpolicella grapes “passes over” (ripassa) the Amarone pomace, thus resulting in a second brief fermentation. This helps to obtain higher alcohol content, deeper color, and rich flavor and aroma.Ageing
After aging in French tonneaux for 18-20 months, the wine is cellared for another 6 months in bottle before release.Largest Wine Storage Facility in Tampa / Ybor
