Cantine di Ora, Valpolicella Ripasso 2021

The vineyards of Cantine di Ora can be found in the Italian region of Veneto, where history, culture and romance are all intertwined between the cities of Verona & Venice. Focusing on a passion for the grapes themselves, their wines are fruit-driven and authentically Venetian. Valpolicella Ripasso 2021 is made from a blend of Corvina, Molinara and Rondinella. It's been made in the Ripasso method, where the leftover lees from Amarone is combined and second-fermented with standard Valpolicella wine to create more depth & flavour. Sitting between the heft of an Amarone and lightness of a Valpolicella, it's soft, incredibly well-rounded and juicy. Bursting with notes of cherry, strawberry, plum and vanilla, it's so moreish and a great wine to pair with gamey dishes.
