TASTING NOTES

Production

For the production of Valpolicella Ripasso Classico Superiore DOC (50% Corvina, 25% Corvinone, 15% Rondinella, 5% Molinara, 5% Oseleta), the grapes are harvested by hand and the selected grapes are crushed after 15 days of drying in the drying loft. The fermentation and maceration process takes place in stainless steel at a controlled temperature and it lasts about 15-20 days. In January or February, the wine undergoes a second fermentation for 5-6 days on the marc of freshly racked Amarone, obtaining more structure, power and harmony. Finally, it rests in large oak barrels. An emblematic expression of the typicality of the Valpolicella territory, the ripasso technique has no equal in any other region of Italy.

Organoleptic Characteristics

It is bright, deep ruby red in colour. It impresses on the nose with an intense bouquet, notes of black cherry, red berry fruit, blueberry and pleasant hints of spices. In the mouth, it is a full and round red wine with great structure. The high alcohol content is correctly balanced with velvety tannins and guarantees excellent drinkability with tertiary and balsamic notes. The taste is harmonious, the body of the fruit emerges, fresh morello cherry, a perfect balance between juiciness and sugar.

Occasion and Pairing

To be drunk every day and as a pairing with red meats such as grilled Florentine steak.

Serving Temperature

To fully appreciate its style, this wine should be served at a serving temperature of 16/18°C.

THE WINERY

Rubinelli Vajol

One family, one spirit. Maison Ruinart was founded in 1729, when Nicolas Ruinart, exploiting the intuition of his uncle, a Benedictine monk in Reims, founded the Maison which still bears his name today. Today Ruinart is part of the LVMH group and is one of the most renowned Champagne producers in the world. There are specific techniques that characterize the history of the Maison Ruinart and reveal the essential character of an exceptional experience. In the Maison Ruinart, Champagne is a product of the earth, which respects the harmony of nature and treats the fruits it offers delicately. The aromatic Chardonnay grape variety is the basis of all cuvées and its grapes derive mainly from the Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims. Blanc de Blancs is the most representative wine for the Maison, which first appeared in 1959. All Ruinart Champagnes ripen in crayères, i.e. chalk quarries located 38 meters deep at constant temperature and humidity, today considered a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Dom Ruinart represents the oldest Champagne produced in history, aimed at acting as the progenitor of a legendary tradition.
