Zenato Recioto della Valpolicella Classico 0.5L 2020

Zenato Recioto della Valpolicella Classico is a richly expressive sweet red from one of Veneto’s most prized wine traditions. Made from Corvina, Oseleta, and Rondinella grapes grown in the heart of the classic Valpolicella zone, it combines depth, elegance, and a distinctly local character. The name Recioto comes from the Veronese dialect word "recia," referring to the small upper wings of the grape cluster once prized for their quality — a fitting nod to a wine with deep historical roots.

Makuprofiili
In the glass, this wine shows a deep, intense garnet-red colour that hints at its concentration and sweetness. The nose is typically generous and layered, with ripe dark cherries, dried berries, plum preserve, and subtle notes of spice and cocoa. On the palate, Recioto della Valpolicella is velvety and sweet, with a beautifully balanced freshness that keeps the wine lively rather than heavy. Expect flavours of cherry compote, figs, raisins, and a gentle bitter-sweet finish that adds complexity. This style has good ageing potential, developing even more nuance and savoury depth over time.

Viininvalmistus
The grapes for this Recioto come from a dedicated vineyard in the heart of the Classico area of Valpolicella, where the hills and well-drained soils help bring finesse and concentration to the fruit. The grapes are typically selected with care and harvested late to ensure full ripeness, with the traditional drying process concentrating both sugar and flavour before vinification. This method is central to the character of Recioto, creating a wine that is naturally sweet, structured, and deeply expressive of its origin.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
Recioto della Valpolicella pairs beautifully with dark chocolate desserts, berry tarts, almond-based pastries, blue cheese, or simply enjoyed on its own as a contemplative after-dinner wine. Serve slightly chilled at around 14-16°C for the best balance of aroma and sweetness. Decanting is not usually necessary, though a short aeration can help reveal more of its aromatic complexity.
