Luca chooses not to register with the regional classification “Valpolicella Ripasso Classico Superiore DOC” ; he feels the region is sacrificing quality for quantity with more commercial Ripasso. “Arcum” (‘Arch’ in Latin) detaches from the modern approach of Ripasso.
A rich, complex wine with the powerful combination of both fresh and dried fruits ; raspberry, plum, prune, dried apricot. The palate is lush with a fine weight added to the refreshing sweetness from the Ripasso. Black pepper, cinnamon and spices spice notes on top of an amazing depth and structure in a very approachable frame.
