This is a customer cult favourite – because La Casetta is a Valpolicella Ripasso with a difference. Most Valpolicella Ripassos are made by adding the leftover skins from Amarone production to standard Valpolicella. But with La Casetta, they go a step further. They add the skins from Recioto – a rare sweet wine which is so intense it makes Amarone look light and fresh. For Recioto, grapes are dried in the sun on straw mats for so long they lose half their volume. It intensely concentrates the sugars and flavours in the grapes – so when the leftover skins are added to normal Valpolicella it pushes it into another dimension of flavour. Tangy red cherry. Plum. Dried fruit. It’s fantastically full with a really plush texture. Perfect with mushrooms or game.

The most delectable lighter red that we have tasted in a long time - this is not for full bodied lovers of strong reds, but I would recommend to non-red wine drinkers as it is so easy drinking and fruity.

This wine is flabby and insipid, a real disappointment. I bought two bottles on the recommendation of the staff, which they made the second I walked in the store! The second bottle will be returned.

This is a flabby insipid wine and a real disappointment. I bought this ( and another which I shall return) because it was recommended to me the second I walked into the store!

Open it. Leave it 20 minutes, and they be drawn to it once you've tasted it.
Amazingly fruit-filled flavours for such a richly flavoured wine.
Goes well with lamb flavoured with oregano and thyme, and with friends.
Also good with Manchego or Pecorino.

An excellent Ripasso. Okay I’m not that savvy when it comes to Veneto wines, and especially this way of making wine made me google/wiki but it’s definitely more aromatic than your normal Italians, more punchy with red fruit, cherry, and somewhat vanilla.
