Nestled between the Adige River in the west, the city of Verona to the south, and the Lessinia to the north, Valpolicella is the land that gives rise to some of the greatest Italian red wines. The Valpolicella Ripasso DOP is obtained by the refermentation of the basic Valpolicella on the pomace of the “Amarone della Valpolicella” (“Ripasso” means “re-pass”). Thanks to this process, the wine is characterized by higher alcohol content, higher values of the phenolic substances and extracts than a basic Valpolicella.
