Reviews:
Jeb Dunnuck: The 2013 Amarone is a beauty! Boasting a deep purple/plum color, awesome notes of plums, chocolate, licorice and potpourri, medium to full body, and a rounded, sexy texture, it packs tons of fruit yet is incredibly well-balanced and drinkable. The blend is 50% Corvina, 15% Corvinone, 30% Rondinella, and the rest Oseleta, from two hillside vineyards, aged 3 years in Slavonian oak. It should drink nicely for a decade or more.
James Suckling: Complex and beautiful aromas of blackberry, spice and coffee follow through to a full body and silky and polished tannins. Intense fruit is tied into a firm and polished tannin backbone.
Producer Information
Tommasi Viticoltori is one of the largest wine producers in the Veneto region, best known for its Amarone della Valpolicella Classico wines. It was founded in 1902 and is now run by multiple members of the fourth generation of the family. The company is based in Piedmont, in the heart of the Valpolicella Classico zone. It owns vineyards in some of the top sites such as La Groletta, Conca d’Oro and Ca’Florian, where it grows grapes for Valpolicella Classico Superiore, Ripasso, Recioto and Amarone wines. Elsewhere in the Veneto region, Bardolino wines are made at Tenuta Fossa Granara in Lago di Garda, and Lugana wines at Tenute San Martino. Tenute Le Volpare is the company’s Soave estate on the prestigious Monte Foscarino. Tomassi also owns estates outside the Veneto: in Lombardy it owns the Oltrepò Pavese Tenura Caseo; in Tuscany the Montalcino estate Casisano (formerly Casisano Colombaio, purchased in 2015) and Poggio al Tufo in Maremma; and in Masseria, Puglia, Masseria Surani in Manduria, Puglia.
