With the great love of wine and dedication to quality passed on to him by his father, in 1960 Sergio Zenato started up the company that today bears his name. With his total, unflagging commitment to wine, over the years he tried out new systems, developing and improving the vineyards. It was Sergio Zenato who brought out the full potential of the Trebbiano di Lugana cultivar, transforming it into a great white by the same name: Lugana. Expanding his horizons into Valpolicella, Zenato was able to continue his work of experimentation. At Costalunga, a 35-hectare estate 300 metres above sea level, the Corvina, Rondinella and Oseleta varieties of grape led to the creation of a wine of great tradition and fame: Amarone. Here too, Ripassa also came into being. This Valpolicella DOC Superiore comes from a selection of the finest Valpolicella “repassed” on the pomace of Amarone.
