Q

Appassimento?

A

Grapes are dried for a period of at least a couple of months and often as many as six, before being pressed and made into either Amarone or the region’s original sweet wine Recioto della Valpolicella.

These two wines therefore depend on the appassimento process for their singular style.

In brief, ripasso is refermented on the lees of a wine made via the appassimento process
