says <strong>Giancarlo Tommasi<\/strong>, winemaker and technical director. &#8220;Our commitment is to ensure that Ripasso continues to stand out nationally and internationally, maintaining a high-quality standard.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rooted in the origins of Valpolicella, Ripasso was born from a revolutionary intuition: the <strong>refermentation of Valpolicella on Amarone pomace<\/strong> (originally Recioto), a process that gave birth to a wine of extraordinary aromatic richness and structure. Today, this traditional method is also a symbol of ante litteram sustainability, demonstrating how circular economy and respect for the environment are an integral part of the Valpolicella&#8217;s winemaking culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Ripasso tells our story, made up of respect for tradition and openness to the future,&#8221; concludes Giancarlo Tommasi. &#8220;<strong>Celebrating the 30th anniversary means honoring a path of excellence <\/strong>that continues to evolve, with a constant commitment to sustainability and innovation.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Sustainability and Innovation: The Lightweight Glass Bottle<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With the 30th anniversary, Tommasi raises the bar of its commitment to sustainability even further. Ripasso<strong> <\/strong>will be available in a lightweight glass bottle (410g), a choice that <strong>reduces the environmental impact<\/strong> by 40%, lowering production and transportation costs and decreasing CO2 emissions. A decisive step towards a more sustainable future, without compromising <strong>quality and tradition<\/strong>, but making the consumer experience more conscious and satisfying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Ripasso: A Wine That Transcends Time<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tommasi&#8217;s Ripasso Valpolicella Classico Superiore is an <strong>intense ruby red <\/strong>with notes of ripe cherry, black pepper, and tobacco. On the palate, it surprises with its elegance, with <strong>soft tannins<\/strong> and a <strong>persistence <\/strong>that leaves its mark. It&#8217;s a wine that doesn&#8217;t follow trends but sets them: versatile, sophisticated, capable of satisfying the most demanding palates and of traversing eras while maintaining its essence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Tommasi Ripasso 30th Anniversary in magnum format, with a celebratory case, will be <strong>available from mid-October<\/strong> on the Tommasi e-shop, in the best wine shops, online platforms, and in high-end retail. A new chapter for a wine that has evolved, remaining faithful to its roots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The aim of the Tommasi family is to bring wine to Italy and the world with passion and trust. Wine is not like a fashion fad &#8211; We are interested in the value of tradition, the vineyard &#8211; to be able to tell a story of extraordinary Italian territories through their wines.&#8221; <strong>Dario Tommasi<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/tommasiwine.it\/?lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tommasi<\/a> Viticoltori dal 1902<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>T. +39 045 7701266<br>wine@tommasi.com<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Via Ronchetto, 4<br>37029 Pedemonte \u2013 Verona<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Wine Shop &amp; Tours<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>From Monday to Saturday<br>10 am \u2013 6 pm<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tommasi Viticoltori, a historic winery in Valpolicella Classica and a symbol of excellence in the world of wine, is celebrating the 30th anniversary of its iconic Ripasso Valpolicella Classico Superiore.
