Description
La Casetta is a Valpolicella Ripasso with a difference. Most Valpolicella Ripassos are made by adding the leftover skins from Amarone production to standard Valpolicella. But with La Casetta, they go a step further. They add the skins from Recioto, a rare sweet wine which is so intense it makes Amarone look light and fresh. When the leftover skins are added to the mix, it pushes it into another dimension of flavour. Bright red cherry. Plum. Dried fruit. It’s fantastically full with a really plush texture. Perfect with mushrooms or game. This is what leading US wine critic James Suckling said about it: “Succulent and rich with layers of dried fruit and spices. Intense and flavourful. Drink now.” 93 points.
