Valpolicella Ripasso is sometimes called the "baby Amarone." This is because this Ripasso Valpolicella undergoes a second fermentation on the lees used for Amarone wines. Incidentally, this Tommasi Ripasso Valpolicella isn't produced every year. Only during exceptionally good years does the Valpolicella Classico Superiore undergo its second fermentation on the lees of the Amarone. Only in this way can Tommasi achieve the quality for which it has become known. A classic winemaking method that offers exceptional value for money. Almost unbelievable, so much quality for this price!
Why is this wine compared to an Amarone? Taste Tommasi Ripasso Valpolicella and you'll immediately know why. What a fantastic wine at a fantastic price. A unique wine from Italy. After harvest, the wine is aged for an impressive 18 months in Slovenian oak in Tommasi's cellars. This creates a sensation. The aroma is rich and intense. You'll find black pepper, hints of raisins and plums, as well as a touch of spice. Take a sip and you'll be amazed. This is delicious! An intense wine that's perfectly balanced. A hint of cherry on the palate. A light spice on the tip of the tongue. Tommasi Ripasso Valpolicella is a sensation you won't get enough of.
