### Key Characteristics:

- **Appearance:** Deep, intense ruby red color with garnet reflections.
- **Aroma:** Rich and complex, with aromas of ripe dark fruits like cherries, plums, and blackberries, along with notes of dried figs, raisins, chocolate, spices, and a subtle hint of vanilla and tobacco.
- **Taste:** Full-bodied and velvety, with concentrated flavors of dark fruits, dried fruit, chocolate, coffee, and spices. The wine has a balanced acidity and well-integrated tannins, offering a smooth and harmonious mouthfeel.
- **Finish:** Long and persistent, with lingering notes of dark chocolate, dried fruits, and spice.

### Production Process:

1. **Grapes:** The primary grape varieties used are Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella, and Oseleta.
2. **Appassimento:** After harvesting, the grapes are laid out to dry for about 100 days in a process known as appassimento. This drying process concentrates the sugars and flavors in the grapes.
3. **Fermentation:** The dried grapes are then fermented slowly at low temperatures to extract maximum flavor and complexity.
4. **Aging:** Tommasi Amarone is aged in Slavonian oak barrels for around 3 years, followed by additional aging in the bottle before release.

### Serving Recommendations:

- **Serving Temperature:** Serve at around 18-20°C (64-68°F) to fully appreciate its complexity and rich flavors.
- **Decanting:** It is recommended to decant the wine for at least an hour before serving to allow it to open up and reveal its full bouquet of aromas and flavors.

### Food Pairing:

- **Meats:** Pairs exceptionally well with red meats, game dishes, and hearty stews.
- **Cheese:** Complements aged cheeses such as Parmigiano-Reggiano, Gorgonzola, and Pecorino.
