60% Corvina, 20% Rondinella, 20% Corvinoni. The vines come from the Pedemonte Hills.
Late harvest style Corvina aged on Amarone lees.
The must of Amarone remains in the vat and instead of being pressed, it is topped up with high quality Valpolicella before being left to referment for about 10-15 days.
Intense red color with garnet hints. Almond and fresh walnut aromas. Full-bodied with a good structure.
This is an excellent red wine with a supple body. The techniques used to produce this wine is typical from the area.
Pairs well with roasted meats.
review for the 2004 vintage:
"The Accordini Ripassa is a deep dark ruby blend of 60% Corvina, 20% Rondinella and 20% Corvinoni aged on Amarone lees. Amarone must is topped up with Valpolicella. The result is an exotique, beautifully balanced wine with a lovely nose of black pepper, blueberry, and dark plum with a soft, lush attack. It is youthful and fresh with a beautiful, exotically flavored, rich and juicy palate showing flavors of coffee, dark plum, black pepper that finishes with good tannic grip."
