Tasting Notes: The Buglioni Valpolicella Classico Superiore Ripasso Il Bugiardo is a dark ruby-red color. Intense and elegant aromas of ripe fruit and spices with hints of vanilla and tobacco. Warm, persistent flavors, velvety and harmonious. The must obtained from freshly vinified grapes in September is re-passed in the Amarone marc in January, following the traditional “ripasso” technique, and undergoes a second fermentation. The grapes left to wither are vinified in November and macerated in contact with the skins for 20 days. The two wines —ripasso, and the wine obtained from withered grapes—are then assembled together.
