The Valpolicella SuperioreĀ Ripasso Acinatico is a red wine obtained from the Valpolicella Classico way, via re-fermentation and a second maceration over the sweet grape skins of Amarone and Recioto. This allows the wine to be enriched in body, color, bouquet and alcohol content.
Once the alcoholic fermentation is completed, the Valpolicella Classico is blended with marcs of Amarone grapes. This triggers a second fermentation process which creates the color, sugars and aromatic components typical of this distinguished wine. This blend is then aged 12 months in tonneaux where it will undergo a malolactic fermentation, becoming a wine with a unique and unmistakable character.

From BARONE DI VILLAGRANDE They say that Sicily is a land of contrasts and so is this wine. The scent gives a glimpse of dry sensations, made smooth by notes of white fruits. The first sip is fresh and enveloping.
