About the Producer:
Along with
Giuseppe Quintarelli and Dal
Forno Romano, Tomasso Bussola is
a leader in the Veneto’s Valpolicella district and in the
production of Amarone.
Although Tomasso purchased his winery and vineyards only a decade
ago, he had already harnessed a basic understanding of the vineyard
from his uncle Giuseppe, a grape grower. Tommaso charted his own
way through the winery and his wines have excelled from the outset.
The Bussola winery has no doubt been a significant contributor
to the upsurge in demand for Amarone over the last few years, leaving
Tommaso with little stock to spare.
The 'TB' wines rank at the top of the winery’s
line-up and should not be mistaken for the lower label 'BG'
wines that Tomasso also produces. No grape selection can be too
strict,
no barrel too perfect – these wines are the cream of the
crop. The ultimate expression of Tommaso’s skill is the Amarone
TB Vigneto Alto, with a glorious fruit density unlike anything
you've ever tasted.
