MASI RISERVA COSTASERA Amarone Classico DOCG

Cocoa, baked plum, toast, culinary spice and leather aromas shape the nose. Full bodied and elegant, the smooth, dense palate doles out fleshy black cherry, blackberry jam, licorice and clove while velvety tannins provide structure. It closes on an espresso note. Drink through 2027.

PROUD, MAJESTIC, COMPLEX AND EXUBERANT: THIS IS A SPECIAL CRU VERSION OF MASI’S GENTLE GIANT, COSTASERA.

A BENCHMARK FOR THE AMARONE CATEGORY, WHICH, TOGETHER WITH BAROLO  MAKES UP THE ARISTOCRACY OF THE ITALIAN WINE WORLD.

HERE MASI’S UNRIVALLED EXPERTISE IN THE APPASSIMENTO TECHNIQUE IS USED TO GIVE THE GRAPES A LONG PERIOD OF FURTHER RIPENING ON BAMBOO RACKS AND AN AGEING PERIOD FOR THE WINE OF AT LEAST THREE YEARS IN CASKS MADE FROM THE FINEST WOOD TYPES.

THE EXPERT USE OF INDIGENOUS GRAPES FOR THE VALPOLICELLA CLASSICA AREA – CORVINA, RONDINELLA AND MOLINARA – IS ENRICHED BY THE ADDITION OF THE UNIQUE OSELETA, A GRAPE VARIETY REDISCOVERED BY MASI.
