Masi Riserva Costasera Amarone Classico 2013
Masi Riserva Costasera Amarone Classico 2013
Proud, majestic, complex and exuberant: this is Masi's gentle giant. A benchmark for the Amarone category, which, together with Barolo and Brunello, makes up the aristocracy of the Italian wine world. The product of Masi's unrivalled expertise in the appassimento technique, whereby traditional grapes for the Valpolicella Classica area - Corvina, Rondinella and Molinara - are laid out on bamboo racks to concentrate their aromas during the winter months.
Very dark ruby red. Baked fruit, plums and cherries. Fruity tastes, with hints of coffee and cocoa. Very well balanced. Excellent as an after-dinner wine, or to go with red meat, game, quails and richly flavoured dishes. Very good with well-aged cheeses, such as parmesan, pecorino and gorgonzola.

Aromas of stewed prune, underbrush, violet and sandalwood form the nose. Reflecting the aromas, the dense palate features raisin, fig and licorice alongside velvety tannins. It's already approachable but will also offer years of enjoyment. Drink through 2028.
