Valpolicella Ripasso DOC Marchesa Mariabella Massimago 2022 0.75l
Complex, aromatic, yet fresh and lively red wine by the young talented winemaker Camilla Rossi Chauvenet. Made from hand-harvested, organically grown Corvina, Corvinone, and Rondinella grapes from a small plot in Veneto with clay soil. After several months of fermentation, the wine undergoes a second fermentation on fresh pomace left after the production of Amarone, which gives it structure and complexity. The aroma of fresh cherries and red fruit is complemented by a velvety taste of cherry jam, soft tannins, and a juicy finish that invites another sip.
The label, called "Italian Facebook," was created by Franco Chiani based on a design by the winery's owner herself.
