Tommasi Family “Wine tour of Italy” experience is an in-depth tour designed for wine enthusiasts who wish to discover not only the Valpolicella Classica and the roots of Tommasi, but also the other territories where the family left their heart and made a dream come true.

It starts from Oltrepò Pavese, the area dedicated to sparkling wines based on Pinot Noir and then descends to Tuscany, passing through the prestigious Brunello di Montalcino and the vast and fascinating Maremma. You then follow itineraries to the south a few steps from the sea of Manduria in Puglia, arriving at the foot of the Vulture volcano in Basilicata.
