Pairing Desserts, cakes and pastries
The Recioto della Valpolicella DOCG Classico from Zeni, in a 375 ml format, offers a sweet, enveloping profile typical of the category. Visually it shows a deep ruby red color with slight garnet reflections. On the nose it opens with aromas of ripe red fruit, cherry and sour cherry, accompanied by notes of dried fruit and delicate spices. On the palate the sweetness is well balanced by fresh acidity and soft tannins, presenting a creamy texture, a compact body and a long, flavorful finish that invites sipping in small measures.

It pairs naturally with desserts featuring chocolate or fruit, with dry pastries and with blue or aged cheeses, but can also be enjoyed on its own as a contemplative wine. It is recommended to serve it chilled, around 10–12 °C, in a large glass to enhance its aromas. The 375 ml format makes it suitable for multiple occasions or for measured sharing.
