Wine box "Chill & Grill" 3+3 bottles for summer from Viviani
A carton from Viviani with three bottles Valpolicella Classico 2023 and three bottles of Ripasso 2020. Perfect for the barbecue.
Tip: try Valpolicella Classico slightly chilled (10g) before dinner as an aperitif and serve Ripasso with the piece of meat from the grill!
My order is 1 box of 6 bottles.
Valpolicella Classico is a blend of 70% Corvina, 25% Rondinella and 5% Molinara from vines that are between 10 and 80 years old. The wine has a beautiful ruby red color with garnet hues.
On the nose we get aromas of fresh red fruit such as red cherries.
The mouth is filled with a lovely concentration of red cherries and an elegance. A balanced wine with light tones and flavors that linger for quite a while.
A refreshing finish that entices you to take another sip.
This is an excellent food wine that goes well with a variety of dishes, from Venetian risotto to fatty fish such as haddock or tuna, as well as pasta dishes with sausage.
Or serve chilled as an aperitif before dinner on a lovely summer evening.
Grape varieties: Corvina Veronese 70%, Rondinella 25%, Molinara 5%
Maturation: Storage in steel and cement tanks.
Alcohol content: 13%
Ripasso
An elegant ripasso in a cherry-fruity style.
A medium-bodied red wine whose aromas, in a more fruity and immediate style, are reminiscent of those of an Amarone. The wine undergoes a second fermentation on the Amarone lees ( ripasso ).
Perfect wine for food, for example a creamy pasta with beef fillet or a piece of meat from the grill. Yum!
Grape varieties: Corvina Veronese 75%, Rondinella 25%
Vineyard work: The grapes for this wine are harvested immediately after the selection of the bunches destined to become Amarone. Vinification takes place in October, and the ripasso fermentation on Amarone lees takes place in March of the following year.
Alcohol content: 14%
