Sartori di Verona Regolo Valpolicella Ripasso Classico Superiore DOC 0,75 ℓ

Regolo is a Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore from the Veneto company Sartori di Verona, located in the province of Verona. We are on the vineyard hills of Valpolicella, where the company has been producing wine for four generations. The grapes that arrive in the cellar are subjected to crushing-destemming, followed by fermentation at a controlled temperature for 8-10 days. During the second fermentation the so-called ripasso of the wine takes place on the Amarone pomace in the month of February. This process favors the extraction of tannins and the typical aromas of this wine. The refinement also includes a passage in medium and large barrels for about 18-24 months. Before being marketed, the wine rests in the bottle for at least 6 months. Bright garnet red wine, with intense aromas of red fruit in alcohol, sweet spices and mentholated balms. On the palate the wine is intense and velvety, with flavors of ripe cherry, red plum and a hint of cinnamon. The wine goes well with hearty dishes accompanied by sauces, such as braised pork cheek or fatty grilled meats.
