Description

Imagine stepping into a world where tradition dances with innovation, where the sun-kissed hills of Veneto cradle ancient secrets. Welcome to Tommasi, a family estate that has been crafting exceptional wines for over a century. This Amarone della Valpolicella Classico is not merely a wine; it's a legacy bottled, a testament to the Tommasi family's unwavering commitment to excellence.

The grapes, Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara, are carefully selected from the heart of the Valpolicella Classico region. But here's the magic: they undergo 'appassimento,' a meticulous drying process that concentrates their flavors and sugars, adding layer upon layer of complexity. The result? A symphony of flavors that explode on your palate. Picture ripe cherries mingling with dark chocolate, a hint of spice adding intrigue, and an underlying note of dried fruit that lingers long after the last sip. This is a wine that commands attention, a wine that tells a story.

But Amarone is more than just a wine; it’s an experience. The rich, full-bodied texture makes it an ideal partner for hearty dishes. Think osso buco, slow-braised lamb, or a robust aged cheese. The wine's tannins cut through the richness of the dish, while its fruitiness complements the savory flavors. Imagine enjoying a winter evening, a crackling fire, and a bottle of Tommasi Amarone shared with loved ones. It's moments like these that make life truly special.

So, why Tommasi? Because you deserve more than just a bottle of wine. You deserve a journey, a story, a taste of Italian heritage. This Amarone is not just a drink; it's an invitation to savor the good life, to embrace the art of winemaking, and to discover the magic that happens when passion meets tradition. Serve it slightly chilled, around 18°C, and give it about 30 minutes to breathe. You'll thank me later.

Your Notes

Whoa, intense! Dark fruit, chocolate...almost too much, but balanced. Appassimento method is wild! Maybe with braised ribs? Learning lots!
