“Solane” Valpolicella Classico Superiore Ripasso from Santi is made from 70% Corvina- and 30% Rondinella grapes. The wine grows in pergola plantations in the Classico district, the soil if calcareous limestone. The grapes are harvested by hand in early October. The fermentation lasts for 15 days at controlled temperature and regular stirring. In November, a part of the wine ferments again with whole grapes which are partially dried (appassite). The rest of the wine is stored until February and is then “ripassate” on the Amarone lees. This is what brings power and character to the final wine. The two different wines (cuvées) are then mixed together and are stored on oak barrels for 15 months. The wine is bottled and is then again stored a certain time.
