Zenato Ripassa della Valpolicella DOC Superiore

"Ripassa" is the name Zenato gave to its unique Valpolicella Superiore, which is refined through a second fermentation on Amarone pomace. This elaborate Ripasso process results in exceptional color depth and intense, supple fruit, which, after 18 months of aging in oak barrels and a further 6 months of bottle aging, achieves tremendous richness and elegance. The wide range of aromas and the silky texture, extending into the long finish, are truly impressive. Ripassa represents a major milestone in the Zenato family's winemaking history, impressively evidenced by the high ratings from renowned wine critics.

Very good wine

This wine is very delicious and makes you want more. Fits very well with dark meat and cheese. But it can also be drunk wonderfully just like that.

Sergio Zenato

The Zenato winery was founded in 1960 by Sergio Zenato and is today, after his death, managed by his wife Carla and their children Alberto and Nadia. Located south of Lake Garda, the family business has around 95 hectares of vineyards in two of the most renowned locations in Northern Italy: Valpolicella and Lugana. Both growing regions are among the best of their kind and give Zenato's wines their unmistakable origin.

On the mineral-rich soils around the lake, grape varieties such as Corvina, Rondinella, Trebbiano, Merlot, Garganega and Chardonnay thrive – a variety that is typical of the region and forms the basis for the winery's different styles. The mild microclimate on Lake Garda, characterized by warm days and balancing winds from the lake, ensures even ripening of the grapes and thus creates the perfect conditions for quality in every vintage.

From a family business to an internationally respected name: Zenato now exports its wines within Italy, throughout Europe and now to the USA. Around two million bottles are produced annually – and despite this size, the demand for artisanal quality and terroir loyalty remains the foundation of every bottle that leaves the house today.
