Cesari Mara Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore 2019

Cesari Mara Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore 2019

91 POINTS: James Suckling

A classic blend of 50% Corvina, 30% Corvinone, 20% Rondinella. Named after the Cesari family matriarch, Mara is vinified using the Valpolicella’s exclusive Ripasso technique. Fresh wine was refermented on the Amarone pomace to create a smooth, elegant wine with an aromatic bouquet of ripe cherries. Mara Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso boasts a persistent, warm finish with round tannins after aging in large Slavonian oak barrels for 12 months. “Mara” is a classic Valpolicella Superiore di Ripasso, a wine of experience and tradition. Few wines express their history, territory, and production technique so distinctly. The “Ripasso” technique (literally to “go over again”) passes Valpolicella over the lees and pressings of the dried grapes used for Amarone for 18 days, from which it acquires part of its cherry fragrance, rich body and striking persistence.
