NeighbourhoodSan Pietro in Cariano
Cheese with Tommasi Viticoltori wines
Monte Veronese
Our pick Old d'allevo is the sharpest, most peppery Monte Veronese, a cheese for the end of a meal. Amarone, dry and full-bodied from dried grapes and long ageing, has the weight and alcohol to stand up to it. Serve a small piece.
Amarone della Valpolicella, Valpolicella: Tommasi Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Ca' Florian · Tommasi Amarone della Valpolicella Classico
Grana Padano
Our pick Recioto is a sweet red from dried grapes. Against aged, granular Grana Padano the cheese's salt and savoury crunch play off the wine's sugar, a milder version of the sweet and salty contrast of Recioto with blue cheese.
