Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso DOC - Catullo - Bertani 2020

The Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso DOC "Catullo" from Bertani is a celebration of elegance and complexity, crafted by the historic Bertani winery, known for its dedication to excellence and the use of traditional methods. This wine is made using the "Ripasso" technique, which involves fermenting the Valpolicella wine again with the pomace from Recioto and Amarone. This process gives the wine greater structure and aromatic intensity.

The Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso "Catullo" presents a deep ruby red color and an olfactory bouquet that bursts with notes of ripe fruit such as cherries and plums, enriched with spicy nuances of vanilla and black pepper, thanks to aging in oak barriques. On the palate, its texture is velvety and enveloping, with a perfect balance between acidity and well-integrated tannins, making it extremely harmonious.

This wine is perfect to enjoy with intense meat dishes, such as braised and roasted meats, but also pairs exceptionally well with aged cheeses and richly flavored dishes. Its complexity and elegance make it ideal for special occasions or as a meditative wine.

Serve it at a temperature of 18-20°C to fully appreciate all its nuances. With its aging potential, the Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso "Catullo" from Bertani can also be cellared for several years, further developing its aromatic and taste complexity. A true gem of Valpolicella that sublime merges traditional winemaking with enological innovation.
