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.
70% CORVINA 15% RONDINELLA, 10% OSELETA 5% MOLINARA
COLOUR: Deep, opaque ruby red, with purple edges.
BOUQUET: Intense aromas of cherries preserved in spirit on the nose with spicy hints of cocoa and coffee.
FLAVOUR: Rich and full bodied on the palate with notable but elegant tannic structure and acidity to ensure freshness of taste. Hints of berry fruits and soft spices make for a long and persistent finish.
Majestic, complex and elegant wine, with great ageing potential. Good with red meat, game and mature cheeses. Excellent finale to a meal.
AGEING POTENTIAL: 30 – 35 Years.
Aromas of smoke and wet earth with coffee beans and pumice to the ripe fruit. Full-bodied, linear and layered with lots of ripe fruit and hints of raisins. Lightly chewy with a tannin backbone. Extremely long and powerful. Blue and black fruit. Very complex. Drinkable now, but better in 2022.
