Domini Veneti ‘La Casetta’ Valpolicella Ripasso DOC Superiore 2017/18. This is Valpolicella Ripasso with a difference. Ripasso wines are made by adding the leftover grape skins from Amarone production to standard Valpolicella, giving greater depth of flavour, texture and tannin. But Domini Veneti’s winemakers go a step further to make La Casetta. They re-ferment the wine with skins leftover from making Recioto – an intensely rich dessert wine – which pushes it into another dimension of flavour. Consider this an exceptional value ‘Baby Amarone’. It’s intense and spicy with rich, heady aromas. Expect notes of plum, cherry, chocolate and dried fruits. The silky texture and elegant tannins match perfectly with game dishes or roasted mushrooms..
