A deep garnet hue introduces this Ripasso, offering a bouquet that intertwines ripe black cherry and plum with hints of dried herbs and a subtle undercurrent of dark chocolate. The palate is medium-bodied yet robust, showcasing a harmonious balance between velvety tannins and vibrant acidity. Layers of black fruit compote and a whisper of spice unfold, leading to a lingering, mineral-driven finish. This wine exemplifies the Ripasso technique, enhancing the Valpolicella's inherent elegance with added depth and complexity, making it a quintessential representation of the Veneto region's winemaking prowess.

Zýmē Celeste Ripasso Valpolicella Superiore is crafted in the Veneto region of Italy, utilizing the traditional Ripasso method. This involves re-fermenting Valpolicella wine with the pomace of Amarone, enhancing its depth and complexity. The wine is composed primarily of Corvina, Rondinella, and Corvinone grapes, grown in vineyards benefiting from a mild, temperate climate. After fermentation, the wine is aged in oak barrels, imparting subtle spice and structure. The resulting wine is medium-bodied with a harmonious balance of ripe red fruit flavors, moderate acidity, and a smooth finish, intended for immediate enjoyment or short-term cellaring.
