Gran Signoria Valpolicella Ripasso 2012 cloves Clyde was forced to dropValpolicella Ripasso is when the fermented juice for a basic Valpolicella is repassed with the unpressed skins from Amarone. This refermentation adds tannins and complexity; and creates a smooth, elegant wine with dark red fruits (especially plum) along with some tasty cinnamon. Enjoy this wine with a porcini mushroom risotto, braised veal or steak, or a deliciously aged Parmigiano Reggiano.
