Description

The Valpolicella Classico Superiore from the Tommasi winery is an ideal red wine to pair with first courses based on game and mushrooms, red meats and medium-aged cheeses. I Pianeti takes its name from the terraces of the hillside vineyards planted with Pergola Veronese and supported by the Marogne.

Tasting notes

Brilliant ruby red in color, Tommasi's Valpolicella I PIanteti offers an intense floral and fruity bouquet of ripe cherry jam to the nose, and a fine spicy texture. In the mouth it is full-bodied, elegant and well balanced, with silky tannins and a long persistence.

Processing

The fermentation of the grapes takes place at a controlled temperature of 25/30 ° for 12 days. Subsequently the Valpolicella I Pianeti di Tommasi ages for 18 months in Slavonian oak barrels.
