The Villa Borghetti Valpolicella Ripasso 2022 is a captivating red wine from Italy's renowned Veneto region. This particular wine features a "Cuvée Superiore" blend, indicative of a refined selection of grapes typically featuring Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara varieties. The traditional Ripasso method enhances its richness, where Valpolicella wine is re-fermented on the lees of dried Amarone grapes, imparting the wine with more depth, structure, and slightly higher alcohol content. This process adds complex layers of dried fruit flavours, subtle tannins, and a balanced acidity, resulting in a wine that is both robust and elegant.
The Veneto region, situated in the northeast of Italy, is renowned for its diverse viticulture and unique microclimates, ideal for grape growing. The Valpolicella area benefits from a combination of Mediterranean and continental climates, with warm summers and cool winters ensuring optimal ripening conditions. Soils vary from calcareous, which aids in water retention and root growth, to volcanic, contributing minerality and complexity to the wines. The wine-making tradition here is centuries-old, with the Ripasso method itself hailing from these historical practices that aimed to enhance the body and character of the light Valpolicella wines.
For pairing, this Valpolicella Ripasso is versatile and complements a variety of dishes. Its full-bodied nature and rich flavours make it a perfect match for roasted meats, game dishes, or hearty stews. Regional Italian dishes like osso buco or a classic risotto al radicchio would also harmonize beautifully with this wine, highlighting its fruitiness and spice. Cheese enthusiasts might enjoy pairing it with aged cheeses like Parmigiano-Reggiano or Asiago.
To best appreciate the complex aromas and flavours of Villa Borghetti Valpolicella Ripasso 2022, it should be served at a temperature of 16-18°C. Decanting for about 30 minutes prior to serving can also help in fully developing its bouquet, making every sip a delightful experience.
