The estate farms just 7 hectares and produces fewer than 40,000 bottles total across its lineup, sourcing Corvina, Corvinone, and Rondinella from hand-harvested, limestone-rich hillside vineyards. The wine is made through the traditional ripasso method: after an initial fermentation in stainless steel with 12 days of skin maceration, the young Valpolicella is re-fermented at the end of February on the still-active lees left over from Amarone and Recioto production, picking up extra richness, body, and complexity from that second pass. It's then aged 12 months, split between French oak barriques and large Slavonian oak barrels, with a further 4 months resting in bottle before release. The result is a Ripasso with real structure and depth, while holding onto the freshness and vibrancy that keeps traditional Valpolicella so drinkable — a natural match for grilled meats, hearty pasta, and bold cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mosaic Wine Alliance","offers":[{"title":"Italy \/ Corvina","offer_id":47394439233705,"sku":"90000398","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/cheesestore.com\/products\/corte-volponi-valpolicella-ripasso-superiore-2022-750ml","provider":"The Cheese Store of Beverly Hills | Domenico's Foods","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
