The Story

A classic Valpolicella blend of Corvina, Corvinone, and Rondinella. There are even historical documents revealing that ancient Romans loved this style of wine.

Ripasso means to “re-pass” and is a method of wine-making where passito grapes that have been dried out are re-fermented with standard Valpolicella wine. This gives the resulting ripasso deep character and bold flavors. Passito and ripasso techniques are so successful that they both have dedicated DOC titles.

About David Sterza

Producer Story

The David Sterza winery is located in the tiny Valpolicella village of Casterna, in the foothills of the Lessini mountain range. The wine estate was established in 1998, but the family has been producing wine through a long tradition handed down from father to son. When the estate was passed into the care of the young David Sterza he sought the professional guidance of his cousin, the renowned wine expert Paolo Mascanzoni and together they set about producing some of the finest wines in the Valpolicella. Amarone is what the Valpolicella is rightly famous for and the David Sterza Amarone Classico is simply one of the best: a powerhouse wine!
