WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Marastoni Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore is produced using traditional grape varieties from the Veneto region. The defining technique is the 'Ripasso' method, where the wine undergoes a second fermentation on the grape skins and lees left over from Amarone or Recioto production. Following this, the wine is aged in oak barrels for approximately 12-14 months to develop its character and structure.
