The Valpolicella DOC Superiore Ripasso Marogne di Zeni is a wine that embodies the elegance and richness of the Veronese hills territory. Made from Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara grapes, this wine best expresses the art of aging with the Ripasso method, which involves a second fermentation on the pomace of Valpolicella Amarone. The result is a more intense body, a enveloping structure, and a refined aromatic complexity. On the nose, notes of ripe red fruits, cherry, and plum emerge, enriched by spicy and vanilla notes due to aging in oak barrels. On the palate, it is revealed to be soft and well-balanced, with velvety tannins and a pleasant persistence that invites the next sip. Perfect with roasted meat dishes, game, and aged cheeses, the Marogne di Zeni is an ideal companion for convivial moments and sophisticated tastings.

Winery history
The winery originated in the village of Grumo and is historically linked to the Zeni family; the company's website states that the winery was founded by Roberto Zeni in 1882. Production and management have been passed down through several generations of the family, and over the years the winery expanded its operations to include traditional-method sparkling wines and an artisan distillery. In the 2000s the winery began a shift toward more natural practices and a gradual conversion to organic viticulture.
