Ripassa has played a highly important role in the Zenato winery’s evolution over the years.

Description

The tireless commitment to excellence, the unbridled passion for our land, and the surprising potential of its native grape varieties: These are the ingredients that make Zenato wines extraordinarily different and unique at the same time.

Today, Zenato has 95 hectares of vineyards between San Benedetto di Lugana, which provides the ideal conditions for growing Trebbiano di Lugana, and Sant’Ambrogio in Valpolicella, home to the celebrated wine Amarone and Zenato’s top reds, and the renowned grape varieties Corvina, Rondinella, and Oseleta.

ZENATO

As soon as the dried grapes for the winery’s Amarone have completed fermentation, a top selection of Valpolicella grapes “passes over” (ripassa) the Amarone pomace, thus resulting in a second brief fermentation.
