In the ancient Valpolicella tradition, Recioto was the wine of special occasions, served during celebrations and convivial gatherings. The Venturini family continues to produce it today according to tradition, showcasing the natural sweetness of dried grapes and the distinctiveness of the Valpolicella Classica terroir.

The grapes, harvested by hand, are carefully selected and left to dry in the drying rooms for 3–4 months , concentrating their aromas and natural sugars. This is followed by a slow fermentation , which is interrupted naturally to preserve some of the residual sweetness. The wine then ages in oak barrels , developing complexity, smoothness, and aromatic depth.

The wine has a deep ruby ​​red color , enlivened by warm garnet reflections . It captivates the nose with sweet and enveloping hints of ripe, jammy berries . The bouquet reveals cherry, wild strawberry, blueberry , and mellow notes of red and dark flowers . The palate is velvety and captivates with its balanced sip, which is sweet yet also appropriately fresh, savory, and tannic . Delicious hints of berries accompany the finish.

The great drinkability of our Recioto makes it a gastronomic wine , perfect for a sweet pairing, with dry pastries or a tasty Sacher torte , but we also recommend trying it with a savory dish , such as a long-aged cheese or a well-aged soppressa . Try it and believe it!

Sweetness, balance, and authenticity blend together in this great Valpolicella classic. Venturini's Recioto della Valpolicella DOCG Classico is a wine that tells an ancient story with a contemporary style , combining tradition, elegance, and authenticity .
