Masi
Costasera Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Corvina Blend
A winner for aging as usual
Still took a couple of Hours to open up, like a good Amarone should.
Nose of blackberry licorice
Deep black fruits playing with bright red ones, subtle licorice, still very heavy in body, with the perfect tannin to acidity Ratio.
Last one in the cellar me thinks.

Raisin, fig, prune, wet hay and warm baked fruit including black cherries on the palette. Paired well with sea salt dark chocolate.

Feb 9th, 2017Fruit has cherry and almost raisin taste. Full bodied and nice medium plus acidity. Ready to drink.

Dec 31st, 2018Opened up into a true explosion of flavors ranging from jammy strawberry to deep dark fall leaves that I jogged in this morning. Walked to the store, bought it, opened it and ready to put my amazing daughter, who is visiting us for Thanksgiving, into awe with this nearly as amazing wine.
