Zeni’s Valpolicella DOC Superiore Ripasso Marogne comes from the classic Valpolicella area, in the hills north of Verona. It is made from Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella grapes, hand-selected from hillside vineyards. Traditional winemaking includes a 10-15 day skin maceration, followed by the “ripasso” process on the unpressed skins of Amarone della Valpolicella. This technique gives the wine greater structure and complexity.

It pours an intense ruby red. The bouquet is vinous and full-bodied, with hints of black cherry and ripe fruit. On the palate, it is rounded, velvety, full-bodied and lingering, with a pleasant spicy character. Depending on the vintage, it ages in oak barrels for 10-12 months, followed by a short period in stainless-steel tanks. With 14% alcohol by volume, it pairs well with dishes from Verona and a wide range of international cuisine. Serve at 17-19°C. The 375 ml bottle is well suited to individual enjoyment or to accompany a special dinner.

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.
Production philosophy
A commitment to sustainable agricultural practices and respect for the land, combined with a family tradition: the winery aims to showcase indigenous grape varieties and organic practices to produce wines expressive of the terroir, while maintaining carefully managed ageing techniques.
Terroir and vineyards
Based in the Piana Rotaliana and colline avisane. The vineyards include both the alluvial plain of the Noce/Adige and slopes with Dolomitic soils. Among the crus is Maso Nero, which is also used for sparkling wine production and aging.
Awards and recognitions
The winery and its wines have been featured in competitions and guides; the winery's website lists awards and press mentions.
