    The world-famous Valpolicella Superiore from Zenato, produced using the Ripasso method, is a rich wine with the best value. It is peppery, with earthy tones and gravel giving way to black cherries and savoury herbs. It reveals deep, silky textures balanced by vibrant acids, while ripe red and black fruits resonate under a hint of lavender. Zenato's Ripassa is concentrated and intense, but at the same time conveys elegance and leaves a fresh note of violet candy on the palate that lingers for a long time. SUPERIORE.DE

    "Bright purple red with violet reflections. Somewhat restrained on the nose with notes of cassis, blueberry and sage. Outstanding spiciness on the palate, youthful acidity with a juicy, medium-long finish." Falstaff

    "This historic wine is an important forerunner of the Ripasso hype. Before all these Ripasso wines, this Ripassa had already earned its own following and reputation thanks to a unique winemaking approach that involves a second fermentation on the skins of the air-dried grapes. The Zenato 2020 Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore Ripassa shows the particular intensity of this winemaking philosophy with aromas of baked plums, spices and cherry liqueur. There is a note of sweet, jam-like ripeness on the finish." Wine Advocate

    "An aromatic, savoury hint of tarry smoke and leather provides a subtle underpinning to the rich mesh of Amarena cherry, cured tobacco, liquorice and warm spices evident in this harmonious red wine with supple, well-integrated tannins." Wine Spectator

    "An excellent Ripasso. A full-bodied wine polished by a smooth veneer of winemaking. Liquorice root, violet, clove, sassafras and dark cherry accent the oak. The sweetness is in the cherry range, but the tannic clip ensures that it is not excessive. This is a wine for those who like power and polish." James Suckling
