Tommasi
Giacomo Tommasi acquired his first parcel in Valpolicella Classica in 1902, beginning the family company’s documented wine history. The holdings expanded through successive generations, and the first official Tommasi Amarone vintage was produced in 1959. The fourth generation began taking key roles in 1997 and developed Tommasi Family Estates across several Italian regions.
Giancarlo Tommasi became director of production in 2000, separating technical leadership from the wider family ownership structure. Valpolicella remains the historic base, while estates in Tuscany, Puglia and Lombardy retain distinct regional identities. Tommasi’s historic Valpolicella base remains the centre of a family group that now includes estates in several Italian regions.
Tommasi Poggio al Tufo 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon
Italian Red
Deep ruby in colour, with blackberry preserve, black pepper, liquorice, vanilla and balsamic herbs. The palate is mouth-filling, rich and full-bodied, with velvety tannins and freshness. Cabernet Sauvignon comes from the Tenuta Albore estate west of Scansano. The grapes were hand-harvested in late September and macerated for twelve days in stainless steel. Maturation lasted twelve months in large Slavonian oak casks.
Tommasi 2009 De Buris Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOC Riserva
Italian Red
Bright, deep ruby with a taut, finely drawn nose of sour and sweet black cherry, evolving toward spice and cocoa bean. The palate is concentrated yet never heavy, delivering high-toned, vibrant fruit over a delicately velvety texture. Poised and harmonious, it closes with remarkable persistence and a long, polished finish.
