2021 Domini Del Valpolicella Ripasso

Dark cherry, plum, vanilla, and a velvety dry finish with floral lift. Corvina, Corvinone, and Rondinella — the fresh Valpolicella gets a second fermentation over Amarone lees, then 24 months in French oak. It's basically Amarone's little sibling at a fraction of the price. Certified organic since 1974 and Demeter biodynamic. Grandfather Guido Fidora pioneered organic farming in Veneto before anyone was paying attention. Pair with cured meats, hard cheese, or a night you don't feel like cooking
