Zenato Ripassa della Valpolicella DOC 0,375 l halbe Flasche

Zenato gives the name “Ripassa” to this wine, which shares many of the characteristics of our Amarone.

As soon as the fermentation is completed of the dried grapes for the Amarone, selected lots of Valpolicella are then “re-passed” on the Amarone pomace, thus initiating a second fermentation which increases slightly the alcoholic content and gives the wine deeper colour, increased extract, and more complex aromas.

After six months’ bottle-ageing, the result is a rounded, velvet-textured wine with rich, complex aromas of berries and an impressively lengthy finish that seems to linger forever.

Ripassa represents one of the most important milestones in Zenato’s winemaking evolution.

Zenato

Das Weingut Zenato liegt in der Moränen-Landschaft von Lugana und Valpolicella in San Benetto in Norditalien. Es ist eingebettet in der malerischen Landschaft am Gardasee. Mit ihrem milden Klima und unvergleichlichen Charme ist diese Weinanbaugegend weltberühmt geworden. Die Weinberge von Zenato umfassen 75 Hektar, auf denen neben Merlot auch die Rebsorten Corvina, Rondinella, Sangiovese und Oseleta angebaut werden.

Im Jahr 1960 übernahm Sergio Zenato das Weingut und versuchte, neue Techniken der Weinherstellung zu entwickeln. Er investierte in die Entwicklung der Mutterreben, um Wein von höchster Qualität zu erhalten. Heute ist seine Frau Carla, zusammen mit ihren Kindern Alberto, Nadia und Sergio, mit der gleichen Begeisterung und Beharrlichkeit in der Leitung von Zenato Weine tätig. In über 60 Ländern der Welt sind Zenato Weine bekannt.

Zenato Valpolicella Superiore 0,375 l (Halbflasche)
The Zenato Valpolicella is somewhat similar to the Bardolino; however, the Valpolicella is a little more powerful and shows a fuller body – it is simply of better quality. The wine consists of Corvina Veronese (responsible for the bouquet and the acidity), Rondinella (lots of sugar) and Sangiovese (gives the wine its elegance). This is a wine that can be enjoyed young, but another few years of ageing in the wine cellar will further enhance its qualities. For years, Valpolicella has been one of Italy’s most famous wines. Unfortunately, one can find many Valpolicella wines of poor quality on the market but fortunately, we don’t have to worry about this as far as Zenato wines are concerned, as Zenato produces only high-quality wines.

Muga Reserva Rioja DOCa 0,375 l halbe Flasche
The Tempranillo, Garnacha, Mazuelo and Graciano grape varieties unite here to create the wonderful Muga Reserva Rioja. This red wine is redolent of blackberries and fennel, complemented by fine roast aromas and lovely nuances of vanilla, coffee and white chocolate. The Rioja is impressively full-bodied and aromatic on the palate, offering the fruitiness of berries, hints of menthol and an elegant acidity. The finish is long-lasting. The Muga Reserva Rioja matured for 24 months in oak casks (medium toast) and for at least another 12 months in the bottle. Wine critic Luis Gutiérrez is impressed by this wine and awards it 91 points in Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate: ‘It has the telltale aromas of spices and berry fruit, with the Muga signature and a medium-bodied palate with some dusty tannins that would welcome food.’ Try this Rioja with veal, cold cuts (pork) or rather hearty stews, for example. The wine is also available in 1.5- and 0.75-litre bottles.
