On our hills, the privileged soil conditions and the right proportion of vines allow us to obtain this Valpolicella, known throughout the world.
Compared to the classic Valpolicella, the designation Superiore indicates an ageing of at least two years.
The name Ripasso derives from the technique used to obtain a more alcoholic, colourful, full-bodied wine with more complex aromas.
It consists in re-fermenting Valpolicella classico on the marc of our Amarone.
After suitable ageing and refining for a few months in the bottle, it is put on sale.
For generations, the Bonazzi family has been handing down the peasant work of grape growing and winemaking. The Fratelli Bonazzi winery is a family-run business, producing excellent classic vintage wines. The winery and vineyards are located in the heart of the Valpolicella Classico area, in foothill plots supported by the characteristic dry-wall terraces (marogne).
The winery, in addition to being linked to the ancient winemaking traditions handed down through the ages, is nevertheless always very attentive to technological innovations.
This is why Mario, Luciano and Angelo are constantly seeking to make changes in the winery and vineyards that will allow for qualitative improvements in the great gift that nature has given us: wine.
