Information

Tasting Note

Deep ruby red in color, it has a broad, complex nose with aromas of blackberry preserve, black pepper, licorice, vanilla and balsamic herbs. On the palate it is mouth-filling, rich and full-bodied, with velvety tannins that are nicely integrated with a pleasing sensation of freshness.

Vineyard

Poggio al Tufo is the first Tommasi family estate outside the Valpolicella Classica area, bought in 1997. It is a story of fascinating Tuscan terroirs, where Tommasi started an ambitious project: creating high quality wines in the Maremma Toscana territories. The property is located in Pitigliano, in the province of Grosseto, a very important
Etruscan site in the heart of Maremma Toscana. Tenuta Rompicollo includes a rural and cosy agriturismo, the result of a careful conservative restoration of the existing buildings.
