Vigneti di Ettore Recioto Valpolicella

In the Glass

The Story

Recioto is Valpolicella’s sweet counterpoint to Amarone, with luscious macerated cherries and spice.

The Producer

Vigneti di Ettore works in the Valpolicella Classica tradition, including the sweet red Recioto style.

Place & Terroir

Recioto concentrates selected grapes by drying them before fermentation; retaining sweetness separates it from the dry Amarone style.

Perfect Pairings

Dark chocolate, cherry tart, blue cheese or biscotti.

Serve lightly chilled, around 12–14°C, in a modest pour.

Worth Knowing

This is a sweet dessert-style red, making dark chocolate and blue cheese more fitting pairings than steak.
