Masi Mazzano Amarone

A towering Italian red wine of great depth, nuance, layering and complexity. This is marine at its best produced by a master. Aromas of black raspberry, kirsch, blackberry liqueur and tar with black spice and a deep core of concentrated pleasure. This is not for the faint of palate. Full-bodied and mouth-filling. Demands hearty meat dishes. This wine is made using the traditional Appassimento method of drying the grapes before fermentation to add more body, colour and depth to the wine. Decant 2 hours. Great cellar candidate.

Amarone Della Valpolicella Classico food pairings: roast beef, cheesy pizza, stuffed roasted turkey, pasta in tomato sauce.
