Valpolicella Ripasso is a form of Valpolicella Superiore made with partially dried grape skins that have been left over from fermentation of Amarone or recioto. Winemaking in the region has existed since at least the time of the ancient Greeks.
Barium chloride, or any other barium salt, should burn with a green flame. When a barium salt is burned, the thermal energy is transferred to the outer electrons of the barium ions. They gain enough energy to excite them to a higher energy level. They then drop back to their ground state, releasing energy.
Barium is reactive, and if you put pure barium metal in the air, it will react with oxygen. At first it will turn black, then white as barium oxide is formed. Barium reacts with water to make barium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. Barium also reacts very fast with acids to make a barium salt and hydrogen.
