Tommaso Bussola

Tommaso Bussola Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore Ca’ del Laito 2018 750ml

Tommaso Bussola Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore Ca' del Laito 2018 Though the grapes for this wine come from a number of vineyards, it gets its name from the Ca’ del Laito vineyard, which sits on a... ridge directly above Quintarelli. Bold, rich, and surprisingly complex, the 2018 Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore Ca' del Laito explodes with juicy cherries and berries, balsamic herbs, underbrush, warm earth, and sprinklings of potpourri and cocoa. A ripasso wine, this Valpolicella “passes” through the lees of the estate’s classic Amarone, adding intensity, polish, and finesse. An absolute bang for the buck!

Tommaso Bussola TB Valpolicella Classico Superiore 2016 750ml

Tommaso Bussola TB Valpolicella Classico Superiore 2016 Tommaso uses the appassimento method for about half of the grapes in its TB Valpolicella Superiore, where the grapes partially dry before... pressing to concentrate their flavors and texture. This 2016 TB Valpolicella is a knockout — crisp cherries and lush berries wrap around a core of savory herbs, warm baking spices, mocha, and touches of burnt sugar and chalky minerals. Nimble and silky, this wine shows sneaky power as it unfolds on the palate to a lingering, rich finish. Enjoyable now with aerations, it’ll be even better in a few years.
