Tasting Notes and Characteristics:
The first sip of Tommasi Vigneto Rafael Valpolicella instantly wraps you in a vibrant tapestry of ripe cherries, wild berries, and a whisper of dried herbs, evoking the sun-drenched hillsides of northern Italy. Crafted from classic Valpolicella grapes—Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara—this Italian red balances juicy fruit with a subtle earthiness and just enough spice to keep things interesting. With an alcohol by volume of 13.00%, it offers both elegance and structure without overwhelming the palate. Whether you’re savoring tender lamb or creamy risotto, this wine’s lively acidity and supple tannins make every bite sing with flavor.
