FOUR GENERATIONS, ONE UNIQUE STORY

In Tommasone Winery the innovation goes along with the respect for the nature and its cycles in the vineyard, with manual harvests and an incredibly careful work in the cellar. Four generations for a single story, to ensure a quality product with full regard for the native patrimony, together with advanced and modern wine-making techniques.

WINEMAKING PRACTICES

The fermentation of white musts takes place rigorously at cold temperature in stainless steel silos, a system which covers the whole winery and that we are proud to have brought for the first time on the Island of Ischia.

The ageing of red wines follows, instead, its own natural evolution in our historical cellars excavated in the green tuff as well as a high care and the manual techniques are reserved to the Classic Method of refermentation in bottle.

RESPECT FOR THE ENVIRONMENT AND TERRITORY

It is our philosophy to transmit the link with the territory and the deep connection with the natural surroundings in each bottle, taking care of the most minute particulars: from the selection of grapes and vineyard to the wine-making process.

The motto is “less is more“, giving absolute priority to quality over quantity.

Many of the wines are produced in very limited quantities, so-called niche products, sought-after products that are not found everywhere. The harvests are strictly manual, some of these are harvested and selected only in the best vintages, such as the Classic Method sparkling wines and our diamonds, Tenuta Monte Zunta and Pignanera.

Strongly linked to the tradition and culture of good wine, it has always paid great attention to the avant-garde and new projects: since 2015 we have been producing the Metodo Classico in Ischia, since 2020 we have been vinifying a particular selection in terracotta amphora and since 2021 we have been refining part of the Metodo Classico underwater at a depth of 40m.

SUSTAINABILITY FROM THE VINEYARDS TO THE CELLARS, UP TO THE PACKAGING

Sustainability and environment are also the basis of our production process and philosophy. Inside each bottle of Tommasone wine you will find the Sun, the Sea, and the land of the Island of Ischia, as we strongly believe that wine takes everything it gets from Nature. The vineyards do not receive treatments of weeding or chemical treatments so that those who will come later than us can enjoy the same perfumes and flavors of the surrounding territory.

We respect the territory but also the final consumer: all our products, in fact, are low in sulfur dioxide, bottled in light glass and packed in eco-friendly packaging.
