The harvest of Valpolicella
The Valpolicella region is a wine region east of Lake Garda. Most well-known appellations, such as Valpolicella, Recioto, and Amarone, originate from this magnificent region in Northern Italy. Tommasi also has many vineyards in the rolling Veneto landscape. This isn't surprising, as the Tommasi winery has been operating for over a century. Founded in 1902, the winery's years of experience have paid off. All the wines, including this Tommasi Valpolicella, are gems; every sip is an Italian celebration.
The aroma and taste of Tommasi Valpolicella
This intense wine's complexity isn't accidental. After harvest, from Valpolicella's most beautiful vineyards, the wine is aged for two months in Slovenian oak. This gives the Tommasi Valpolicella just the right amount of fullness, while retaining its fruity bouquet. An excellent combination. Just smell the glass: you'll smell freshness and fruit, notes of sweet cherries and red berries. A pleasant aroma that will keep you coming back for more. But what are you waiting for? Take that well-deserved sip. Wow! This is delicious. The cherry notes are clearly present. The oak gives this Italian wine that little something extra. A balanced glass of wine, where perfection reigns supreme. Tommasi Valpolicella pairs beautifully with a dinner of pasta, pizza, red meat, and fresh cheeses.
