Cesari Valpolicella Ripasso DOC Superiore 75cl The “Ripasso” technique has a history of use in Valpolicella, and consists of refermenting the wines of the same year’s vintage or that of previous years on fermented dregs of the dried grapes used to produce Amarone.

Essentially, this serves to strengthen the Valpolicella, which is made from a blend of grapes consisting of about 70-75% Corvina Veronese, 20% Rondinella and 5% Molinara, and make it more robust, drawing what is left from these noble dregs. The refermentation lasts 15/18 days and the Valpolicella wine that has thus been “made over” acquires color, structure, fragrance and tannins, as well as about 1-1.5 percent more in alcoholic level than the original wine. After it is finally racked off in February and March and has undergone its malolactic fermentation, the wine is left to mature for about 12 months in barrels of Slavonian oak (80%) and French oak tonneaux (20%). Ageing is completed by resting in bottles for almost 6 months.

Already from the first olfactory examination the characteristic notes of ripe fruit, fruit preserve and cherries can be perceived. Its incredible persistence is striking: it lingers on the palate, where it opens in all its power with a warm, elegant body.

In 1946 a modernization process was undertaken. This would be the event that would distinguish the company, as it still does today. In the early 1960s, the first automatic bottling lines of the semi-sparkling Prosecco wine were introduced. The finishing touch of tying a string over the cork, reintroducing the original tradition of the farmers of the area, was done by hand to prevent its uncorking during the natural fermentation of the typical bottled Prosecco wine.

Mionetto converted the production of Prosecco from bottle fermentation to autoclave fermentation definitively in 1982 by choosing the Charmat method which better preserves the flavours and fragrances of the a grape variety so rich in aroma and fruity scents such as Prosecco"

Villadoria Moscato d'Asti DOCG 75cl Moscato d'Asti D.o.c.g., Grape variety: Moscato 100%, Production area and characteristics: Grapes for this wine come from the Serralunga d'Alba hills, an area favoured for the production of Moscato for both the terrain, rich in calcareous marl mixed with clay, and the exposure of the vineyard.

Grapes are harvested by hand and soft crushed. The must is cooled immediately to a temperature of around 0°C and clarified. Fermentation takes place in temperature- controlled autoclaves.

Fermentation is interrupted by refrigeration when the wine reaches an alcohol content of around 5 degrees and 100 grams per litre of residual sugars. Sterile filtration and bottling follow.

Straw-yellow colour with golden hints. Fine perlage and persistent foam, with a bouquet rich in aromatic orange- blossom, peach and apricot scents. Its natural vivacity makes it pleasantly sweet and fresh in the mouth.

It goes well with all desserts; ideal for celebrating special occasions or to end the meal at any time.
