Winemaking notes
The term “Brolo” (which corresponds to the French “clos”) refers to vineyards surrounded by stone walls. Made using the Masi double fermentation technique, like Campofiorin. Freshly-picked grapes are vinified straight after harvest in controlled temperature conditions for 25 days at 22-24°C with the use of selected yeasts.
Viticultural notes
Oseleta is an indigenous grape from Verona used for extra body and colour, rediscovered and replanted in the Veneto by Masi technicians in the 1980s. “Brolo” is the equivalent of the French clos, a vineyard enclosed by a wall. Accordingly, grapes for this elegant wine come from selected vineyards of Corvina, Rondinella and Oseleta
Tasting notes
Dry, rich, velvety, complex and elegant. Made in the same approachable style as Campofiorin, of which this is a cuvée version, using the original production method inspired by the technique employed for Amarone. Given extra complexity with the addition to the blend of the special Oseleta grape, rediscovered by Masi, ageing in small oak casks accentuates its international style
Pairing notes
A wine with rare versatility. Good with pasta dressed with rich sauces (based on meat or mushrooms), good with risotto, grilled red meat, roasts and well-aged cheeses.
