Chianti classico Riserva...
Riserva is made from our best Sangiovese grapes. This medium to full-bodied wine displays the elegance and charm of this classic Tuscan grape variety and reveals a<br />finesse that certainly does justice to this historic appellation. Aromas such as cherry, spices, leather and chocolate harmonise perfectly with each other. The Sangiovese<br />matures in tonneaux for 16 months, while the Merlot matures in barriques. The cuvée matures in the bottle for at least another year after bottling.<br /><br />Monica Larner noted in the Parker Wine Guide for the 2012 vintage: 'A wonderful wine that deserves attention. I am impressed.'<br /><br />Ideal with: grilled meat, roast beef and veal, stews, grilled fish, pasta dishes and risottos. Our favourite with fresh porcini mushroom risotto<br />

Ripassa Valp. DOC 2019...
Ripassa Valpolicella Ripasso DOC Superiore<br /><br /><br />Immediately after the fermentation of the Amarone raisins, the best selection of Valpolicella 'ripassa' on the Amarone marc, starting the second short fermentation; in this<br />way the alcohol content increases and a product richer in colour, extracts and aromas is obtained.<br /><br />After ageing in French oak tonneaux for 18/20 months, it is then left to rest in the bottle for 6 months.<br /><br />The result of this process is a refined and concentrated wine, extremely soft and velvety, with intense aromas of small red fruits.<br /><br />Ripassa offers fruity scents and fine tannins on the palate, with an aura of chocolate and spices. It represents one of the most significant wines in Zenato's oenological<br />evolution.<br /><br />Grape varieties: 85% Corvina Veronese, 10% Rondinella, 5% Corvinone.<br />Geographical location and characteristics of the vineyard: hilly area of Valpolicella, south-eastern and south-western exposure.<br />Average altitude of the land: 250-300 metres above sea level.<br />Soil type: predominantly cretaceous, calcareous<br />Training system and planting density: guyot, with about 5,000 vines per hectare.<br />Average age of vines: 10/15 years old<br />Number of buds: 8/10 per plant<br />Yield per hectare: 100 quintals<br />Harvest time and method: first and second ten days of October. Manual harvesting.<br />Vinification: The grapes are destemmed and macerated in stainless steel fermenters for 10-12 days. After alcoholic fermentation, the new wine is separated from the skins<br />by means of a soft press and stored in steel tanks until January, when the dried grapes are pressed to produce Amarone. At this point, the Valpolicella is 'repassed' on the<br />Amarone marc with a 7-8 day period at a temperature of 25-28°C. This is followed by 18 months of refinement in tonneaux and a few months of bottle ageing in temperature-<br />controlled environments.<br />Colour: deep ruby red.<br />Bouquet: intense, fine and persistent, with hints of black cherry and plum.<br />Taste: harmonious and velvety, with good structure.<br />Serving temperature: 18°C<br />Food pairings: an excellent companion to game dishes, grilled meats and roasts, cured meats and mature cheeses.<br />
