The uniqueness of Ripasso della Valpolicella lies in its production method, which follows the traditional "ripasso" process. This method involves a second fermentation of the wine on fresh Amarone and Recioto pomace, giving the final product extraordinary complexity of aromas and greater body structure. The result is a wine of deep ruby red color, which on the nose offers intense scents of ripe red fruits, spices, and a subtle hint of tobacco and chocolate.
On the palate, the Ripasso della Valpolicella DOC from Tenuta Sant'Anna stands out for its perfect balance between acidity and well-structured tannins. The notes of cherry, plum, and spices blend harmoniously with nuances of vanilla and black pepper, leading to a persistent and satisfying finish.
Aged in oak barrels for at least 18 months, this wine is ideal for pairing with flavorful dishes such as roasted meats, game, and aged cheeses. It is recommended to serve it at a temperature of 16-18°C to fully appreciate its richness and complexity.
With its robust character and rich nuances, the Ripasso della Valpolicella DOC from Tenuta Sant'Anna is an excellent choice for all lovers of intense and well-structured red wines, representing a true pride of Valpolicella's wine production.
