About the wine
This Amarone from the Masi winery captures the essence of Valpolicella: deep red cherries, dark chocolate and a touch of tobacco. The centuries-old winemaking art of Masi gives it strength and elegance, perfect for anyone who loves it intensely and unadulterated. A wine that lingers for a long time — uncompromising and full of character.
Tasting note
Dark, dense ruby. Dense, intensely spicy bouquet. Lots of black, ripe fruit, coffee, tobacco, roasted nuts, dried fruits, toasted wood. Complex and demanding. A soft and flattering start on the palate. Then rich and majestic, ripe black fruit again. This is accompanied by sweet spicy nuances and notes of roasted wood, mocha and black pepper. Robust, ripe tannins. Long, long-lasting finish in excellent balance.
Culinary recommendation
Accompanies sumptuous meals such as game dishes. Also typical for risotto al amarone. Ripe cheese.
Vinification
For Amarone Riserva, the best Valpolicella grapes from around 30-year-old vines are carefully harvested at the beginning of October, checked again piece by piece and any unripe, dry or injured berries are removed. The grapes then stay longer than with “normal” Amarone (approx. three months) in well-ventilated rooms on special slatted frames to dry out. They lose 25 to 40% of their original weight; at the same time, sugar, flavor and extract are concentrated. Fermentation, which lasts around 90 days, is initiated in temperature-controlled steel tanks around mid-March. The wine is then aged for several years in wooden barrels of 6 to 8 hl.
