This wine is produced with grapes selected from the Marne Bianche vineyard on the Maternigo Estate. The wine is obtained according to the ancient technique of Ripasso, in other words, through the refermentation of one part of Valpolicella wine produced in October on the marc of Amarone and Recioto. Aging is carried out in Slavonian oak barrels for approximately 15 months followed by a further 6 months in the bottle.
The first documents relating to the Tedeschi estate date back to the 17th century; since the 1630s, the family have worked within the region, shaping and influencing its vineyards and landscape. Today their association with Valpolicella, its terroirs and its leading wines is recognised worldwide. The Tedeschi winery is a premium family-owned and run winery producing renowned classic Veronese wines, including Valpolicella, Amarone, Ripasso and Soave.
