Domini Veneti 'La Casetta' Valpolicella Ripasso DOC Superiore 2019

Product Description

This is Valpolicella Ripasso with a difference. Ripasso wines are made by adding the leftover grape skins from Amarone production to standard Valpolicella, giving greater depth of flavour, texture & tannin. But Domini Veneti’s winemakers go a step further to make La Casetta. They re-ferment the wine with skins leftover from making Recioto – an intensely rich dessert wine – which pushes it into another dimension of flavour. Consider this an exceptional value ‘ Baby Amarone’. It’s intense & spicy with rich, heady aromas. Expect notes of plum, cherry, chocolate & dried fruits. The silky texture & elegant tannins match perfectly with game dishes or roasted mushrooms.
