Amarone Classico Tommasi

🏆 Critical Acclaim: 94 pts — James Suckling (2018 vintage)

From one of Valpolicella's most respected family estates, Tommasi's Amarone Classico is the benchmark expression of this legendary wine style. The Tommasi family has been crafting wine in Veneto since 1902, and their Amarone showcases over a century of expertise with the appassimento technique.

Tasting Notes: Intense ruby red in the glass. The nose reveals tempting cherries, fig cake, and espresso with accents of thyme and pomegranate. Full-bodied on the palate with dried strawberry, violet, and supple tannins, finishing with elegant notes of singed orange peel and wood smoke.

Enjoy with: Slow-braised beef cheeks, wild boar ragù, or a selection of aged Italian cheeses.
