Chef Emanuele Selvi
The kitchen brigade is led by Chef Emanuele Selvi, originally from Sant'Ambrogio, one of the five municipalities of Valpolicella Classica area. Valpolicella has always been in his heart: his dishes are impressive for their harmony and territorial expression. He personally selects the primary ingredients and chooses products from the local area: cheeses come from selected Lessinia dairies and undergo the ripening process that gives an extraordinary taste to both Monte Veronese and Cimbro; special cured cuts such as Vinappeso and others refined with Valpolicella and Amarone. He is passionately in love with the wines of his land, which he celebrates in his cuisine, particularly in the creation of the traditional Risotto with Amarone produced by Tommasi Viticoltori.
