Bertani Valpolicella Ripasso Classico Superiore Catullo is made from 70% Corvina Veronese, 20% Corvinone, 10% Rondinella. Valpolicella Classica, Tenuta Novare Estate in Arbizzano di Negrar.
Wine of medium structure with elegant spicy notes of vanilla and chocolate accompanied by typical notes of cherry, sour cherry and white pepper. The palate offers the easy drinkability typical of Valpolicella and, at the same time, silky tannic structure and intense, prolonged aromatic persistence. The finish is fresh, soft and savory. A wine in the classic style, elegant, balanced, harmonious.
Review:
If I was forced to choose a number of wines that can steer the anachronistic Ripasso category into a brighter future, this would be among a very few. A mid-weighted, streamlined expression with just enough fruit on the bones. Think strawberries, lilacs, Asian plums, cloves and a hint of licorice. A noble, almost alpine bitterness lifts the finish. Brilliant. Drink or hold.

Pago de las Capellanes Blanco O Luar Do Sil Godello Sobre Lias is made from 100% Godello.
Giving voice to Godello vines, to the geology of granite and to the fullness of sensations. This is our vision and we achieve it with careful winemaking on lees, so that the wine’s own matter provides balance and floral complexity, so that it shapes a fine and vigorous structure, a stimulating delicacy.
The wine pays homage to its landscape, clean, fruity aromas that caress the mineral cold. Leading us along small paths among white flowers, Godello Sobre Lías reveals light, truth and life.
