Description
Nestled within the heart of Long Island’s premier liquor store, Long Island Wine & Spirit Merchant, is a noteworthy addition to any wine connoisseur’s collection – the Santa Sofia Ripasso. This distinguished wine hails from the picturesque region of Veneto in Italy, a land known for its rich wine heritage and the birthplace of the revered Amarone wines. The Ripasso method, a unique technique that involves re-fermenting Valpolicella wine on the grape skins left from Amarone production, imparts to this Santa Sofia offering a complexity and depth that is both rare and enchanting.
At 750mL, each bottle of Santa Sofia Ripasso is a testament to the craftsmanship and tradition of Italian winemaking. It cunningly bridges the gap between the lightness of Valpolicella and the intensity of Amarone, offering a palate that is robust yet harmonious. With each sip, one can discern the layered flavors of dark cherries, ripe plums, and a subtle hint of spices—a palette that harmonizes flawlessly with the wine’s velvety texture and lingering finish.
Ideal for those seeking to explore beyond the familiar territories of rose and sweet red wines, this spirit-category gem offers a sophisticated option. Whether you’re looking to enhance your wine rack, gift a special someone a memorable crate, or simply indulge in a glass that elevates your wine tasting experience, the Santa Sofia Ripasso is a choice par excellence. Available for local pickup, local delivery around Long Island, or shipped nationwide by Long Island Wine & Spirit Merchant, this wine promises not just a drink, but an experience, delivered right to your doorstep or ready for collection.
