Masi
Riserva Costasera Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Corvina Blend
One of the more drinkable reds we’ve had this trio.

Sep 28th, 2019In 1958, Masi was in the forefront of the work to identify the historic "cru" vineyard sites for Amarone. Had another ‘08, Wow! Dark red with complex aromas of black and red fruits & spice. On the palate sweet cherry and dried plum flavors, currants, cacao and tobacco notes with oven spices. Soft smooth tannins well balanced with just the right touch of acidity on a lingering finish. Aged well, still has room to age. Great sipping wine! Yum!

May 13th, 2018This wine has a lot of dark fruits, figs, rum spices, and slight cigarette. Very drying in mouth with a slight awkward wood like plank characteristic.

Aug 5th, 2015Good, but lots of heavier toast wood on the nose-mocha/coffee tones. Shorter finish. Wanted to like more than I ended up liking.
