RECIOTO BARRELS

Our Recioto barrels come directly from the renowned Valpolicella wine region in Northern Italy and have been previously filled with Recioto della Valpolicella – a prestigious sweet red wine with protected designation of origin (DOCG). Made from semi-dried Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara grapes, Recioto is celebrated for its deep ruby color, refined sweetness, and complex flavor profile.

At OAKBARRELS.SHOP, we collaborate with selected wineries in the approved Valpolicella municipalities to source only premium-quality casks. These oak barrels – predominantly made from French oak – are carefully emptied, inspected, and prepared for reuse before being imported. Ideal for innovative barrel-aging projects, these Recioto barrels add rich, sweet, and nuanced character to any spirit or brew.
