VALPOLICELLA RIPASSO MONTI GARBI TENUTA SANT'ANTONIO

Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso is a match made in heaven between Valpolicella Giovane and Amarone pomace.

It was our ancestors who, in their pursuit of fine wines, pioneered the Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso method, which has been handed down and is embodied in our Monti Garbi. Soave Monte Ceriani is always different but, by the same token, unique. It is obtained from 100% Garganega grapes. Another wine which deserves a mention is Soave Vecchie Vigne, aged in barrels, one of its kind from a small vineyard whose vines are more than thirty years old.
