Intense, notes of overripe red fruit, cinnamon, and vanilla. Warm and persuasive, with notes of cooked fruit, sweet spices, cloves, and a long and dry finish. Proud, majestic, complex and exuberant. This is a special cru version of Masi’s gentle giant, Costasera. Masi’s unrivalled expertise in the Appassimento technique is used to give the grapes a long period of further ripening on bamboo racks and an ageing period for the wine of at least three years in casks made from the finest wood types. The expert use of indigenous grapes for the Valpolicella Classico area - Corvina, Rondinella and Molinara – is enriched by adding the unique Oseleta, a grape variety rediscovered by Masi.
