LA BOTTE MAGNIFICA A REAL ARK OF DREAMS AND PASSION

Our “Magnifica” barrel is one of the largest barrels in the world, a true heritage born and created in Italy for the 110th anniversary of the Tommasi winery.

It took life from 5.000 kg (11,000 ponds) of the best oak, for a total volume of 40 cubic meters (1,400 cubic feet) and a capacity of 33.300 liters. (8,800 gallons).

It is in Slavonian wood that we refine our Amarone preferring a traditional refinement in large barrels.

To complete the tour, a visit to the vineyard or to the rooms dedicated to the drying of the grapes that will become Amarone.

At the end of the tour, a professional guided tasting of wines paired with a selection of typical cold cuts and cheeses.
