The story
The Tommasi family has been active in winemaking since 1902, when Giacomo Tommasi purchased the first vineyard in the Valpolicella Classica. Over the 20th and 21st centuries the company evolved into Tommasi Family Estates, acquiring and managing several estates outside Veneto and consolidating its reputation especially through the production of Amarone. Amarone Tommasi is produced according to the traditional appassimento method, and the wine’s historic expression dates back to the late 1950s as a distinctive family product.
