Cellar

The Masi winery produces and distributes Amarone and other traditional wines typical of the Venetian region. The use of indigenous grapes and methods and the research and experimentation activities of its Technical Group make it one of the best known Italian producers of excellent wines in the world. Its history began in 1772, when the Boscaini family purchased valuable vineyards in the small valley called 'Vaio dei Masi'. This gave its name to the winery, which is still owned by the family and which, after more than 200 years of passionate work, now actively operates with the sixth and seventh generation. A reference in the art of Amarone production worldwide, Masi constantly passes down and innovates the technique of drying the grapes, known since Roman times. For more than forty years it has undertaken an ambitious project to enhance historic wine estates, collaborating with: the Conti Serego Alighieri, descendants of the poet Dante, owners of the estate with the longest history and tradition in Valpolicella the Conti Bossi Fedrigotti, a prestigious Trentino griffe Canevel, producer of sparkling wines of excellence in Valdobbiadene. Masi also owns the organically managed estates Poderi del Bello Ovile in Tuscany and Masi Tupungato in Argentina. The Group boasts products that are known and appreciated in more than 120 countries. Masi is a partner in associations and organisations that express the excellence of Made in Italy in the world: Fondazione Altagamma, Comitato Leonardo, Istituto Grandi Marchi, Le Famiglie Storiche.

Description

Bonacosta Valpolicella is one of the 'classics' of the great Veronese tradition, interpreted by Cantina Vinicola Masi in contemporary style. Valpolicella Classico, defined by Hemingway as 'as friendly as the house of a brother with whom one gets along well', is here proposed as an example of elegance made of simplicity and freshness. It is produced in Valpolicella Classica from the traditional Veronese grapes Corvina, Rondinella and Molinara. An everyday, drinkable yet elegant wine.

Organoleptic characteristics: 

Light ruby red colour. The nose is frank, intense with hints of ripe cherries and dark berries. The palate is fresh, fine, with soft, silky tannins. Cherry dominant, hints of vanilla.

Storage time: 

3-5 years

Vinification 

Alcoholic fermentation in steel and ageing in Slavonian oak barrels for 6 months.
