What is a Fruttaio
The large airy room where grapes are dried in Valpolicella

What is an Arele?
The typical “hurdles” of wood and bamboo, where some of the grapes used to produce Amarone is still dried in the traditional manner.
* Arele are kept inside Fruittaios

Describe Appassimento
After harvest grapes are laid out in flat bins –the traditional wooden ones are called “Arele“.
They are allowed to dry until a minimum of December 1st on the year of harvest before they are pressed. Many houses wait until sometime in January though, preferring to decide based upon grape condition, sugar level, and flavor.
The traditional grapes of the region (Corvina, Crvinone, and Rondinella) gave thick skins which allow them to preserve freshness while drying. They tyipcally lose about 30-35% of their original weight by the end of the drying period.
Describe Ripasso
Ripasso is a way to gain more flavor structure and sugar for the wines of Valpolicella DOC that are not bound for Amarone.
After the grapes for Valpolicella are pressed and fermented once they are put aside to store. All the while the grapes for Amarone are going through their druing period.
Once the Amarone destined grapes have finished drying they are pressed and macerated with the juice to ferment; in some cases for 40 days.
The skins and solids are removed from the freshly fermented Amarone.
Those grape skins are preserved and re-soaked with the saved Valpolicella wine. The residual sugar from the skins and fresh yeast begin a second fermentation
