Description

Tommasi Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOCG 2019

The Tommasi family’s Classic wine par excellence. Its elegance and structure, roundedness and complexity make this wine truly unique.

Grape Varietals & Region: Corvina 50%, Corvinone 30%, Rondinella 15%, Oseleta 5% from the prestigious La Groletta and Conca d’Oro crus, in the hilly Valpolicella Classica zone.

Taste Profile: Very intense ruby red color, the nose reveals intense and clean scents of very ripe cherry, black cherry, wild berries followed by fresh and slightly spicy tones. In the mouth it is dry and soft at the same time, enveloping and of great balance thanks to the excellent balance between acidity and tannins. The whole tasting is embellished with a very pleasant tannic texture, which fades towards a finish of excellent persistence, with light hints of red fruit.

Winemaking Process: Manual harvest and selection of the grapes, followed by drying for about 3 months in a well-ventilated loft. Fermentation in stainless steel for 25 days at 25°-30°C. 3 years’ maturation in 35 and 65 hl Slavonian oak casks.

Rich & Jammy Reds

Deep, fruit-driven and jammy; filled with ripe, rich fruit and a plethora of spices. This style is typified by Australian Shiraz, Sonoma Zinfandel and Châteauneuf-du-Pape.

Expected typically notes of pepper, spice, raspberry, plum, leather

Passito Wines

Passito wines is the use of dried grapes to make wines. The main difference from late harvest is that these wines are often picked when ripe & dried after picking, and can be dried to different levels of moisture. A practice made popular by Italy, it has been adopted in various other regions
