Tommasi Viticoltori

Das Weingut Tommasi Viticoltori wurde 1902 gegründet und hat sich als Unternehmen über die Jahrzehnte enorm entwickelt. Mittlerweile wird das Weingut in der vierten Generation der Familie Tommasi geleitet. Der einstige Familienbetrieb ist allerdings heute ein großes Unternehmen, und besitzt heute Weingüter in den Regionen von Italien, die besonders für Weinbau geeignet sind: im Valpolicella Classico Gebiet, den DOC Bereichen von Verona, dem Proseccogebiet in Treviso, der Region Oltrepò Pavese und in der Lombardei, Montalcino und Maremma in der Toskana sowie Manduria in Apulien.

Das ursprüngliche Weingut Tommasi Viticoltori liegt in Pedemonte, einem kleinen Dorf im Herzen des "Valpolicella Classico" Region, im nordwestlichen Teil von Verona.

Von Großvater Giacomo Tommasi's winzigen Weinberg ist das Gut stetig im Laufe der Jahre gewachsen und heute erstreckt es sich über 195 Hektar Weinberge. Die Familie besitzt Weinberge auf den renommiertesten Hügeln: La Groletta, Conca d'Oro und Ca'Florian. Hier gedeihen die Trauben prächtig für die unvergleichlichen Amarone Classico, Ripasso, Valpolicella Classico Superiore und Recioto della Valpolicella Weine.

Der renommierteste Wein ist der Amarone, einer der ganz großen Weine der Welt.
