2018 Domini Veneti Valpolicella Classico Superiore Ripasso Collezione Pruviniano DOC

這支2018年 Ripasso 來自 Domini Veneti 的 Pruviniano 系列，口感直率又帶點優雅：熟梅、風乾櫻桃和些許李子果香先跳出來，橡木帶來淡淡香草、雪茄皮和辛香調。酒體中等偏厚，酸度明亮使整體清爽，單寧細緻而有咬感，令結構穩固但不笨重。釀法沿用里帕索傳統——讓年輕酒液與經過部分風乾的果皮再接觸，以抽出更濃郁的香氣與色澤——因此果味濃郁卻仍保有食物搭配彈性。適合先醒一陣子再喝，與烤牛排、野味或濃郁義大利燉醬最搭。

A classic Ripasso from Domini Veneti’s Collezione Pruviniano, the 2018 vintage shows ripe dark fruit framed by tangy oak and savory spice. Aromas of prune, dried cherry and black plum lead to a medium-plus palate with fine, rather tight tannins that give grip and structure. Oak aging adds cedar, vanilla and a subtle tobacco note while the lively acidity keeps the wine fresh and energetic. Made in the Valpolicella Ripasso Classico tradition — fermented on partially dried grapes and re-passed over Amarone skins to extract extra concentration and depth — this wine delivers ripe fruit, savory complexity and a polished, food-friendly profile. Drink now with a short decant to open the aromas, or keep for a few years to allow the tannins to soften.

Winery

Domini Veneti 歸屬於 Cantina Valpolicella Negrar，這個合作社在瓦坡里西拉經典產區有長期耕作經驗。酒莊結合傳統與現代做法：講究果實風乾、精準發酵與適度橡木陳年，目標是保留果香的同時增添結構與香料層次。葡萄園多座落於經石灰與黏土交替的緩坡，日夜溫差讓果皮熟成更均衡，成就了這款有力度又好搭餐的酒。

Domini Veneti is produced under the Cantina Valpolicella Negrar umbrella, a cooperative with deep roots in the Valpolicella Classico zone. The range blends tradition and modern cellar techniques: careful drying of grapes, controlled fermentation and restrained oak ageing to add spice and structure without overpowering fruit.
