Luciano Arduini Classico Superiore Ripasso Valpolicella 2022, Veneto D.O.C., Italy: Ripasso gets extra richness when the young wine is passed over the leftover skins from Amarone. Luciano Arduini's Classico Superiore is plush and deep. Fig and cinnamon swirl through a velvety, generous red. Meaty lasagne is the pairing to try. It's Amarone's younger sibling, with all the family charm. Ripasso Valpolicella food pairings: meat-lover's pizza, meaty lasagne, grilled steaks.
