About

Cantine di Ora Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore is produced in the Veneto region of northern Italy, an area famous for its Valpolicella and Amarone wines. The winery focuses on expressing regional traditions with a modern, approachable style.

Winemaking: After the initial fermentation, the wine undergoes the traditional ripasso process, where it is re-fermented on the skins of Amarone grapes. This enhances structure, richness and complexity before further ageing.

Vineyards: The vineyards are located in the Valpolicella hills, where a combination of calcareous soils and a temperate climate allows grapes to develop ripe fruit flavours while retaining balance and freshness.

Food Pairing

Perfect with roast meats, game, rich pasta dishes, mushroom risotto and mature cheeses.
