Description

The Tommasi family’s Classic wine par excellence. Its elegance and structure, roundedness and complexity make this wine truly unique.

TASTING NOTE

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.

GRAPES Corvina 50%, Corvinone 30%, Rondinella 15%, Oseleta 5%.

VINTAGE 2016 The 2015/2016 Winter was cold but dry, the following Spring rainy and cool and the summer, not particularly hot, ended with a pleasant autumn with high temperatures and a nice ventilation, just in time for a great phenolic maturation. 2016 was not an easy vintage for vineyard management due to frequent rains, but gave a great wine characterized by aromatic amplitude and taste balance for a vintage oriented to elegance. A wine that stands out for a lower residual sugar, but also a dry extract and a lower pH, pleasantly balsamic and mineral; a wine that looks for power and richness, but also for elegance and a well balanced body.
