The Amarone is a small jewel of Zenato's wines, made from outstanding corvina, rondinella and sangiovese grapes of the Valpolicella Classico zone, in the communes of Sant’Ambrogio, Negrar, Pedemonte, Fumane, San Pietro in Cariano and Marano.

For this wine, we rely on the oldest vines in the Podere Massoni vineyard, planted on shaley-clay soils, on a low yield of 70 quintals per hectare, and a fairly late harvest date (mid October).

Ripasso Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore DOC - Zenato Winery
From the Ripasso method comes Zenato's Ripassa Valpolicella, a refined, full-bodied and very velvety wine, the result of the best selection of Valpolicella "re-passed" on the Amarone pomace. The second short fermentation enriches this Venetian wine in aroma, structure and softness, making it one of the most important wines of the Zenato winery.

Valpolicella Classico Superiore is a well-structured red wine, produced from Corvina Veronese, Rondinella and Corvinone grapes, mainly grown in the Sant'Ambrogio di Valpolicella vineyard.
