Seccal Valpolicella Ripasso 2020

Tasting note

Very fruity on the nose, with notes of wild strawberries, dark cherries, ripe blackberries, dried figs, roses, lavender and sweet spice aromas in the background. Juicy, fresh on the palate, with tightly woven tannins and a beautiful drinkability.

Terroir

The first fermentation takes place spontaneously with the vineyard's natural yeasts in stainless steel tanks and lasts around twelve days. In winter, a second spontaneous fermentation follows on Amarone pomace, also in stainless steel tanks, over a period of about eight days. The wine then matures for 16 months in Slavonian oak barrels before being refined in the bottle for another four months.

Food pairings

Mushroom dishes, polenta, game, game birds
