Proud, majestic, complex, and exuberant, this Costasera represents a special selection of Masi's gentle giant. It is a benchmark for the Amarone category, which, along with Barolo and Brunello, represents the aristocracy of Italian reds. Here, Masi's renowned expertise in Appassimento is interpreted through lengthy over-ripening of the grapes on bamboo racks and a minimum of three years of aging in fine oak. The expert use of the native Valpolicella Classica varieties—Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara—is enriched by the inclusion of the original Oseleta, rediscovered by Masi.
