Stefano Accordini - 2021
Item #368
After the first fermentation, the wine is blended with marcs of Amarone grapes triggering a second fermantation creating the color, sugars & aromatic components. Aged 12 months in tonneaux, undergoing a malolactic fermentation.
Intense ruby red. The very broad bouquet presents a marriage of both fresh and refined notes of mature fruits, spices and tobacco. The taste is full, strong and is perfectly combined with soft tannins.
The Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso Acinatico is a red wine obtained from the Valpolicella Classico way, via re-fermentation and a second maceration over the sweet grape skins of Amarone and Recioto. This allows the wine to be enriched in body, color, bouquet and alcohol content.
Once the alcoholic fermentation is completed, the Valpolicella Classico is blended with marcs of Amarone grapes. This triggers a second fermentation process which creates the color, sugars and aromatic components typical of this distinguished wine. This blend is then aged 12 months in tonneaux where it will undergo a malolactic fermentation, becoming a wine with a unique and unmistakable character.

From MOSNEL Chardonnay and subtly fruity Pinot Blanc, with a judicious touch of Pinot Noir to lend structure. Revealing in the glass a luminous white-gold shot through with pale green highlights, it opens to a thrust of vibrant, crisp fragrances, with cleanly-delineated citron and grapefruit, honeysuckle, and verbena, with just a hint of iodine. Crisp fruit notes of white peach and gooseberry characterizes the full-volumed palate that concludes with a lively, full-flavoured finish.
