Catullo Valpolicella Ripasso Classico Superiore 2017

A medium-structured wine with delicate spicy
notes of vanilla and chocolate, together with typical
overtones of cherry, sour cherry and white pepper.
The palate stands out for its easy drinkability,
typical of Valpolicella, as well as the silky tannic
structure and intense aromatic length. The finish
is fresh, soft and sapid. This wine features a classic,
elegant, balanced and well-orchestrated style.

Winemaking
This wine is made with second fermentation,
called “ripasso”. In March, the fresh, young vintage
Valpolicella wine referments on the still slightlysweet Amarone Classico skins.

Ageing
In 75-hectolitre French oak barrels for 12 months,
plus a further year in 100-hectolitre concrete vats

Bottle maturation
At least 6 months
