The Story
Still red wine from Veneto, 15% ABV, produced by Casa Lupo. Blend: 65% Corvina, 15% Corvinone, 10% Rondinella. 0.75L bottle, 2022 vintage. A Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore born from a passion for the region and collaboration with Valpolicella winemakers. Before aging, the Valpolicella is remacerated on the pomace of the recently racked Amarone, leaving it to rest for approximately 15-20 days. It then matures in 500,000-liter oak barrels for 18 months, followed by bottle aging until optimal ripeness is achieved. On the nose, it recalls small red berries such as currants and blackberries, with hints of violet, plum, and spices. Intense red color with garnet highlights. On the palate, fresh notes of small red berries. Velvety, with delicate and balanced tannins. A wine that pairs perfectly with red meats, mature cheeses and mushroom-based dishes.
