Monte Tondo Ripasso della Valpolicella Superiore DOC Campo Grande 2021, 0,75 L

A true red wine classic from the Veneto region, Valpolicella Superiore DOC Campo Grande is crafted using the traditional Ripasso method. During this process, unpressed but dried grapes from Amarone production are added to the fermented wine, infusing it with a dark, concentrated, and robust flavour profile. The wine is then matured for 18 months in used barrique barrels, enhancing its complexity and depth.

Hailing from the renowned Campo Grande vineyard in Campiano, this Valpolicella Superiore is made from 70% Corvina and 30% Rondinella—typical grape varieties of the region. Its vibrant, deep ruby-red hue in the glass immediately entices. The nose and palate are greeted with a symphony of bold, fruity aromas: blackberries, vanilla, dried fruit, and a touch of spice with notes of pepper and mint. The wine is beautifully balanced, with a velvety smooth texture and a warm finish, complemented by well-integrated tannins.

Perfect for pairing with dark meats, and especially delightful alongside BBQ dishes, this wine offers exceptional enjoyment and tremendous value for its price.
