The 35 Best Producers of Amarone

Forbes contributor Tom Hyland included Tommasi in a roundup of the best Amarone della Valpolicella producers. The story begins with background on this wine, recognized as one of Italy’s most powerful and iconic red wines since its inception in the 1950s.

It shouldn’t come as a surprise that Tommasi is selected as one of the top ranking wines in the category. With more than 100 years of family history, “Tommasi continues to impress with its harmonious examples of Amarone that are classically styled. The Amarone Classico, which contains fruit from their Conca d’Oro vineyard in Sant’Ambrogio in the western hills of the Valpolicella district, is a beautiful wine that focuses on subtle spice to go along with its stylish fruit; this is an Amarone of grace and charm. The Ca’ Florian Amarone from a vineyard at the Tommasi estate is a riserva that is quite impressive.”
