Produced by the Cottini family, this red wine is a benchmark for those seeking a full-bodied wine that expresses the complexity of Verona with a modern approach and impeccable technical clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 data-path-to-node=\"4\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eMontezovo - Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore DOC 2023\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003eMontezovo's \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"5\" data-index-in-node=\"3\"\u003e2023 Ripasso Superiore\u003c\/b\u003e is a wine with a generous and enveloping character. Its production follows the ancient Veronese tradition: the base Valpolicella is \"repassed\" over the Amarone pomace, which is still rich in sugars and noble aromatic precursors. This process gives the wine greater chromatic concentration, a more robust structure, and a bouquet enriched with notes of ripe fruit and spices. The 2023 vintage stands out for its splendid fruit integrity, maintaining a vibrant freshness that perfectly balances the extractive softness, making the sip dynamic and never heavy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSensory Profile\u003c\/b\u003e In the glass, it presents an intense and deep ruby red color. The bouquet is broad and inviting: notes of black cherry, blackberry, and dark plum stand out, embellished with elegant hints of vanilla, cocoa, and a touch of cinnamon. On the palate, the entry is warm and velvety; the tannic texture is dense but extremely smooth. The characteristic mineral savoriness of Montezovo's soils supports the structure, finishing with a long, clean, and pleasantly spicy finish reminiscent of black pepper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eVinification and Aging\u003c\/b\u003e The native grapes (Corvina, Corvinone, and Rondinella) are vinified in steel at controlled temperatures. Subsequently, the wine undergoes re-fermentation on the Amarone pomace for about 15 days. Aging continues for approximately \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7\" data-index-in-node=\"270\"\u003e12 months\u003c\/b\u003e in oak barrels, where the wine acquires stability and complexity, followed by a further period of rest in the bottle. This maturation allows the power of the ripasso to harmonize with the varietal elegance of the original grapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eFood Pairings\u003c\/b\u003e A red wine of great gastronomic versatility, perfect with structured dishes.
