Laden with indulgent notes of dark cherries, plums, chocolate, and tobacco, it harmoniously balances its high alcohol content with striking depth, complexity, and a persistent finish. This wine's long, meticulous ageing process in Slavonian oak casks imparts an additional layer of spicy nuances, enriching the robust fruity core. An extraordinary example of Amarone, the Tommasi Ca Florian showcases its expertise passionately, miraculously capturing the quintessential qualities of its native Valpolicella terroir. This wine is a connoisseur's delight, inviting moments of luxurious indulgence.

Tasting Notes

A deep ruby red with garnet highlights, on the nose it displays an elegant and very complex bouquet, with notes of ripe cherries, blackberries and plums, along with spicy nuances of liquorice and bitter cocoa. It is full-bodied and austere on the palate, with rich tannins and a very long, splendidly fresh finish.
