Valpolicella Ripasso Classico 2021 £23.50
Valpolicella Ripasso Classico 2021 is a beautifully expressive red from Veneto, Italy, crafted in the classic Ripasso style that delivers real depth. Expect an intense ruby colour and a bouquet that feels both precise and captivating, with dark fruit character supported by gentle spice and subtle dried-fruit notes. Made from a traditional blend of Corvina, Rondinella and Molinara, it balances charm and substance in every glass.
On the palate, this Ripasso is dry, savoury and full-bodied, finishing with a velvety texture that invites another sip. It’s the sort of wine that stands up to hearty meals without losing elegance, making it ideal for weeknight pasta, slow-cooked dishes, and comforting Mediterranean flavours. If you’re looking for a Veneto red that feels premium yet approachable, this 0.75 l 2021 bottle is an easy choice from a range worth exploring.

Italy
The ancient Greeks called Italy "Oenotria" meaning wine land and its inhabitants are today as passionate about their wines as ever. Hand in hand with this passion goes an intense commitment to local styles and local grape varietes, of which there are said to be more than 500. Yes 500 different varieties! As a result, Italy produces a wider, more fascinating range of individual, characterful wines than anywhere else in the world. And over the last two decades in particular, Italy's very finest wines have improved out of sight and their star is still on the rise. If anyone is going to truly challenge the famous names of France for supremacy in the battle for the hearts and minds of wine collectors the world over, it's the Italians. Bordeaux, Burgundy and Rhone look out. Here comes Tuscany, Piedmont and Puglia!
Veneto
Veneto is a substantial and increasingly important wine region in the northeastern corner of Italy.
With fruity red Valpolicella complementing its intense Amarone and sweet Recioto counterparts, Veneto is armed with a formidable portfolio of red wines to go with its refreshing whites, such as Soave and sparkling Prosecco. Although much of the new vineyard area that supported Veneto's increased wine output was of questionable viticultural quality, today more than 25 percent of the region's wine is made and sold under DOC/DOCG titles.
