Biscardo Ripasso Valpolicella Superiore is a red wine from the Valpolicella DOC produced by Biscardo winery with Corvina Veronese, Rondinella, and Corvinone.
The Biscardo Ripasso Valpolicella Superiore is a wine that stands out for its quality and expression, made from Corvina, Molinara, and Rondinella grapes, which are the base varieties for the great wines of Verona, including Valpolicella, Ripasso, and Amarone. The vineyards are located in the hills near Verona, at an altitude of approximately 150 to 250 meters above sea level. The grapes are harvested by hand and placed in wooden boxes, usually during the early morning or late evening, to avoid the intense heat they could receive during the day.
The winemaking process begins with the quick arrival of the grapes at the winery, where they are carefully sorted and selected. Fermentation takes place in small oak barrels at a controlled temperature. Subsequently, in January and February, the wine comes into contact with the noble skins of Amarone, which strengthens the structure of the wine, enriching it with fragrances and complex tannins. Then, the wine is aged in oak barrels for 12 months.
