The history of the Tommasi Group began in 1902 with a husband, a wife and a dream.
The historical context of the Belle Époque gives an idea of the frivolous and light breeze that swept through the city of Verona when Giacomo Battista Tommasi married Augusta in 1902 and went to live with his family.
While continuing to cultivate the family's land in Valpolicella, Giacomo already saw wine, no longer as a simple drink, but as a superior product for social occasions and celebrations.
That dream is now a family business based in Valpolicella Classica and estates throughout Italy. The fourth generation is at the helm. Each of the nine siblings and cousins preside over precise roles in the company and together manage the business and strategies, leading to the entry of the fifth generation.
Description
On the hills of San Pietro in Cairano, in the Valpolicella Classica Storica area, Terra dei Ciliegi is a wine made from grapes surrounded by cherry trees that sweeten this wine. It is precisely the cherry aromas that stand out in the bouquet of this light and velvety Rosso Verona IGT, perfect as an aperitif that can also be served chilled.
Organoleptic characteristics:
Brilliant ruby red, with a fragrant, vinous bouquet, with notes of cherry, morello cherry, strawberry, raspberry, currant and hints of spices.
The taste is dry, soft, characterised by the same sensations on the nose, with considerable drinkability
Storage time:
2- 4 years
Vinification
5 days of carbonic maceration. 6 days of fermentation in stainless steel tanks and 4 months in stainless steel barrels.
