Delicious fruity Ripasso. Full of flavour. Cherry liqueur, plum juice, dark chocolate. Long finish with lovely acidity that keeps the desire to drink alive. For the bon vivant who is simply pleasantly satisfied with half a bottle. We ourselves can't resist and buy a whole bottle. For years, Tommasi Ripasso Valpolicella Superiore has been a highly sought-after wine among many wine lovers. And we certainly understand why. Tommasi has had an excellent reputation for winemaking for well over a century. The Tommasi winery from the Veneto was founded as early as 1902. The location of the vineyards is exceptionally beautiful and they have an excellent position in relation to the sun.
Ripasso is also known as baby Amarone. This is because the leftover must from Amarone is used to produce a Ripasso. A second fermentation occurs with the Amarone must, giving the wine the warm, soft, and full flavor of the Amarone must. As a result, Tommasi's Ripasso acquires an exceptionally full flavor, and at this price!
Incidentally, Tommasi produces the Ripasso only in exceptionally good years. After fermentation, the wine ages for 15 months in 65-hectoliter Slovenian oak barrels. This is how they maintain the reputation for which they have been famous for over a century!
The Tommasi Ripasso Valpolicella Superiore has an intense ruby red color. On the nose, you detect rich aromas of black pepper and notes of raisins. Take a sip and you taste a full, balanced flavor, very intense, spicy with a hint of sweet cherries. The wine pairs excellently with white and red meat, game dishes, and young and aged cheeses. The ideal serving temperature is 16-18ºC.
