Tasting note

這支來自瓦坡里西拉經典產區的里帕索，先有櫻桃與李子等明亮果香，入口轉為烘乾無花果、葡萄乾與烤杏仁的溫暖風味。酒體中等偏厚，單寧圓潤而有抓力，酸度帶動整體清爽感，尾韻帶有香草、可可與一抹煙草的香氣。 釀造上採用里帕索工法：將正在發酵的葡萄汁回流接觸曾用於製作更濃縮酒款的葡萄皮（即阿瑪羅內的陳年葡萄渣），能帶來更豐富的乾果層次與結構，但不會過於厚重。之後在橡木中熟成，使單寧更柔順、香氣更立體。 田地來自Marano的經典山丘，石灰質與黏土混合的土壤、日照充足且排水良好，有助於果實成熟同時保留明亮酸度。整體口感兼具飽滿果味與可餐的結構，配紅肉或風乾類料理都非常合拍。

Bright, generous Ripasso from Domini Veneti showing a core of ripe red and dark cherry framed by plum and dried-fig notes. Secondary aromas of toasted almond, cocoa, vanilla and a gentle tobacco note come from extended skin contact and oak ageing. On the palate it is medium-plus in body with rounded, ripe tannins, lively acidity and concentrated fruit that carries through to a persistent, spicy finish. The Ripasso method — a gentle second fermentation on dried grape skins — gives extra depth and dried-fruit richness without becoming heavy. Producer notes: Made by Domini Veneti under the Cantina Valpolicella Negrar umbrella, this wine draws on traditional Valpolicella know-how. Winemaking combines careful fermentation and Ripasso re-fermentation on Amarone pomace, followed by maturation in oak to integrate tannins and add spice and vanilla complexity. Vineyard notes: Grapes are sourced from the Classico hills around Marano with well-drained calcareous-clay soils and a temperate, sunny microclimate that favours ripe red fruit and lively acidity. The result is a wine that balances richness with freshness, ideal for hearty dishes and matured cheeses.
