Lugana DOC, Valpolicella Ripasso Classico Superiore DOC Tommasi

The wooden box contains 2 Venetian wines from the Tommasi company.

Valpolicella Ripasso Classico Superiore is produced from Corvina Veronese, Corvinone and Rondinella grapes and is born in the La Groletta and Conca d'Oro vineyards located on the hills of Sant'Ambrogio, in the historic Valpolicella area.
Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks for approximately 15 days, then the must ferments on the Amarone pomace for approximately 12-13 days, with continuous daily pumping over. The vinification takes place in large Slavonian oak barrels for approximately 18 months, and for a further 6 months in the bottle.
Valpolicella Ripasso is characterized by an intense ruby red. The nose is rich and spicy, enriched by pleasant notes of black pepper and hints of raisins. On the palate it is full, soft, with elegant notes of ripe cherries.
Perfect to accompany red meats and white meats, it is ideal in combination with mature cheeses.

Lugana Le Fornaci is produced with Turbiana grapes, which are fermented at a controlled temperature. The refinement lasts 3 months in contact with the lees.
Of an intense and brilliant straw yellow colour, it presents the typical hints of tropical fruit on the nose for a dry and harmonious sip. Hints of mango and pineapple return to the palate with a savory and mineral finish, while the typical almond aftertaste accompanies a medium-long persistent finish.
Perfect for appetizers, finger food and shellfish-based first courses.
