Mezzopiano Italian Red
A soft Veneto red we keep just a bottle or two of.
The story behind Mezzopiano
Ripasso is a red wine style from the Veneto, made by running Valpolicella wine back over the skins left from Amarone. That second pass pulls extra color, body and dried fruit character into a wine that still drinks easy and stays food friendly. It is richer than a plain Valpolicella but not heavy like Amarone.
We stock Mezzopiano Ripasso here in Commack in small quantity, one or two bottles at a time, so it moves fast. Ask us at the counter and we will tell you honestly what is on the shelf.

Enough body to stand up to braised meat and tomato.
A gentle step up from Valpolicella without the Amarone price.
