| Description: | Corvina 50%, Corvinone 30%, Rondinella 15%, Oseleta 5%. Vinous 95 Points - "The 2019 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico entices with a darkly alluring bouquet of crushed stones and dusty violet florals, accentuating notes of blackberries and hints of candied orange. This is sleek and racy in style, with lifted textures and polished red and blue fruits that flow across a stream of lively acidity. Remaining remarkably fresh through the finish, it tapers off with a confectionary air, leaving a resonance of violet pastille and crunchy tannins to linger on." - Eric Guido. The grapes for Tommasi's Amarone are dried for around 3 months in a well-ventilated loft before crushing and fermenting in stainless steel for a relatively long 25 days. The wine is then aged for around 3 years in traditional medium-large Slavonian oak casks. Producer tasting notes: "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." - Tommasi Viticoltori |
