Valpolicella DOC
Since 1902, Tommasi’s Valpolicella has been synonymous with quality and an authentic local style. A traditional wine that deserves to be rediscovered.
Even in the simplest of wines there are grand moments. Our Valpolicella Classico is joyful, carefree and crisp, like taking a bite of the first cherries from the orchard behind our house.

Description
Information
Tasting Note
A deeply colored yet attractively transparent ruby red; on the nose it is fragrant and fruity, with the typical scents of firm, juicy cherries and red fruits. It is fresh and well-balanced on the palate, which elegantly recalls the attractive fruity notes on the nose, offering a light, supple and persistent taste profile.
Serving Suggestions
Its lightness and elegance make it a versatile, everyday wine, particularly with pasta or rice dishes, white meats, and young or moderately aged cheeses. Try it with elaborate, richly flavored pizzas.

James Suckling 2017
This is impressive for a simple Valpolicella with blueberries, elderberries and freshly cut herbs, as well as some orange peel. Medium to full body, bright acidity and a firm finish.
