Additional information:
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.
Masi has recognized expertise in the Appassimento technique, a process of natural partial dehydration of grapes that enhances the concentration of color, aroma, and flavor in the wine.
In the Veneto region, where this technique dates back to Ancient Roman times, grape drying is essential for producing Amarone, the supreme expression of this genre, while Recioto represents its traditional sweet counterpart.
