Le Bignele Valpolicella Classico Superiore Ripasso 2019

The history of winery Aldrighetti begins in 1818 with the purchase of some lots around the locality “Bignele”, a place surrounded by the nature of the classic Valpolicella hills, near a small country village called Valgatara (which is now an outlying suburb hamlet of Marano di Valpolicella).

From time their family has been of following family traditions and has tilled the land with passion and devotion for years. The winery stretches on a hilly land, with 8 hectares of vineyards, located at about 300 meters above sea level, and is run by two brothers Luigi and Angelo Aldrighetti together with their children Nicola and Silvia.

Tasting Notes

On the nose you can smell tobacco, leather, and vanilla. On the palate you may notice dark cherries and raisins. The finish is long with lingering notes of spice. After that, you'll want to have another sip!

Food Pairing

This wine is, in its full body and concentration, very similar to an Amarone, and at a better price point. Pair with pasta dishes, meats, and aged cheeses. Delicious!
