Description
This wine is a still wine, the taste is nicely firm, predominantly cherries and has a light complexity. The scent consists mainly of cherries and raspberries, currants and raisins, matured and apricot kernels. Medium-bodied for very refined. In contrast to many Ripasso's this is a real serious wine with a good balance between the acid and the sweet.
Tedeschi Ripasso Capitel San Rocco is the dry red wine based on dried grapes from the Valpolicella region. Ripasso is a traditional method in which during the 2nd fermentation the must is brought into contact with the warm dried grape skins from which the Amarone wines are pressed. The result is a special dry red wine, full and powerful.
The Tedeschi family has been delivering wines of undisputed top quality for years. Not only the wines from dried grapes, but also the 'ordinary' Valpolicellas may be considered specialties of this great family business. Partly due to a maturation of eight to ten months on French oak, an unrecognizably powerful Valpolicella is created. The Tedeschi winery makes a large number of different wines. In addition to red wines, white wines are also made based on grapes from neighboring regions such as Soave and Bianco die Custoza. Some of the grapes are purchased from other producers. But of course the best wines come from their own vineyards in the heart of the region, the Valpolicella Classico.
