At that time, most growers sold their grapes, and—just like Champagne or Rioja in that era—very little emphasis was placed on fastidious viticulture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe inquisitive Bussola started prune his vines shorter, to work his soils more thoughtfully, and to focus on the health and balance of his vines. For, while many producers concentrated on the process of making wine there, Bussola reasoned that raising better fruit would result in better wines (whatever the winemaking and élevage to follow).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTommaso experimented relentlessly, and absorbed information and ideas from every source available. With each passing vintage, his wines came to show more polish, finesse, intensity, and personality. By the late nineties, Tommaso's style had matured, and his wines had become world-famous for their incredible intensity of fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe estate's first goal every year is to make the best Amarone Classico possible. It's the rare Amarone made from all estate fruit, and an incredible value in the category.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Amarone della Valpolicella","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42462580113542,"sku":"ADV-Bussola-Classico","price":76.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0075\/0338\/0543\/files\/amarone_bussola_jpg.webp?v=1763785035","url":"https:\/\/www.winesolutions.com\/products\/tommaso-bussola-amarone-della-valpolicella-classico-docg-2020","provider":"Wine Solutions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
