Bolla is one of the oldest Amarone houses and more than 130 years later, the Bolla winery has grown into a world-famous winery with a wide range of wines. What has remained is the unique taste of the Bolla wines resulting from the special climate and terroir of the Veneto area. Oenologist Christian Zulian has been a winemaker at Bolla since 2015. Before joining Bolla, he worked for thirteen years at Marchesi Antinori and several years at Domaine Baron de Rothschild.
The Le Poiane Ripasso is deep garnet red in the glass. In the nose the typical ripasso gueren such as Intense scents of black currants, vanilla and spices. On the palate the wine is full bodied with flavors of red berries and cherries followed by a long lingering finish. The Le Poiane wines from Bolla are only made in the top years and mature longer than the standard Ripasso. This Poiane has matured in oak for 12 months. The bottle also comes in a luxurious paper sleeve. A true jewel on the table. This Ripasso from Bolla is highly recommended with grilled meat and game.
This Bolla Ripasso is beautifully packaged in an original wrapping. A jewel on the table and also a beautiful gift.
The story of the Bolla winery starts with one man, Abele Bolla. He lives in the north of Italy, in the Veneto region, where he runs a small family inn. In order to offer his guests more than just a stay, he decided in 1893 to produce a wine that he could serve to his guests. This Soave is a light yellow, fresh, aromatic wine, which reflects the essence of the Veneto area. The demand for this wine grows as more and more people taste its wine. As a result, the family decided to fully focus on wine production. More than 130 years later, the Bolla winery has grown into a world-renowned winery with a wide range of wines. What has remained is the unique taste of the Bolla wines resulting from the special climate and terroir of the Veneto area.
