Stefano Accordini is one of the most respected names in Valpolicella, a family estate based in Pedemonte in the Classico heartland. The Ripasso style — re-passing the base Valpolicella wine over the skins left after Amarone production — was pioneered in this zone, and Accordini's version is a benchmark example.

This Valpolicella Ripasso is plum-red in colour with complex aromas of dried cherry, vanilla, leather, and spice. On the palate it has real substance — mid-weight tannins, plenty of dark fruit, and a warm, velvety finish that reflects the richness absorbed from those Amarone skins. Excellent with roast lamb, braised beef, hard Italian cheeses, or a simple plate of salumi and bread.

Stefano Accordini

Stefano Accordini’s family involvement with wine started early in the 20th century when Stefano’s father Gaetano Accordini bought 5 ha of vineyards in the hills between Verona and Lake Garda. Stefano continued his father’s passion for producing Valpolicella wine on their family vineyards all his life and was followed by his sons Daniele and Tiziano (pictured). In turn, the current generation of Accordinis; Giacomo, Paolo, and Marco, have inherited the love for Valpolicella and a place in their family enterprise. It might seem like stating the obvious, but you get something really special when four successive generations dedicate themselves to producing and refining one particular style of wine. With a total of 10 ha under vine, the Accordindis know every inch of their land intimately. The vineyards have south-eastern exposure and a balanced soil composition perfect for growing the Corvine, Rondinelle and Corvinone grapes that go into the Accordini Valpolicellas.
