Masi Costasera Amarone 2019 750ml

A really fresh and well-balanced Amarone here, with tapenade, ripe but fresh blackberries, spicy chocolate, and some red berries as well. This is tight and juicy, with a medium-to-full-bodied palate and a lengthy, fruity finish. A modern, fresh version of Amarone that is extremely drinkable while remaining rather serious. Not overly concentrated, yet demonstrates restraint and balance. Drink or hold.

This is Masi’s gentle giant: proud, majestic, complex, and exuberant. A benchmark for the Amarone category, which, along with Barolo and Brunello, comprises the aristocracy of the Italian wine market.

Masi’s unrivaled competence in the appassimento technique, which involves laying classic Valpolicella Classica grapes – Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara – out on bamboo racks to concentrate their scents over the winter months.
