The lineage of this wine traces back to ancient times, harking to the era of the revered Romans and their celebrated libation "Retico," extolled by Latin poets. Today, reincarnated as Recioto, it stands as an emblem of Valpolicella Classico's viticultural legacy—a wine born from the meticulous "appassimento," the natural drying and withering of grapes, and regarded as the progenitor of the illustrious Amarone. Displaying a ruby-red hue tinged with violet, its bouquet is a symphony of fruit, notably raspberry, cherry, prune, and plum. On the palate, it offers a sweet, supple, velvety embrace, culminating in warm notes of raisins on the finish—a truly singular sweet red wine.
