Winemaking notes
Mezzanella is a Recioto wine that stands out for its complexity and for its characteristic almond aftertaste. A real rarity that comes from the eponymous vineyard, well known for its quality since the XII century, where the grapes ripen naturally in traditional drying lofts during the cold winter months.
Viticultural notes
Corvina, Rondinella, Molinara. In the 1950s, Masi was a pioneer in establishing the cru or “single vineyard” concept in Italy. The companys Amarone and Recioto wines from historic cru vineyards are excellent expressions of the different terroir sites in the Valpolicella region, which endow the wines with unique style and typical, easily-recognisable characteristics.
Tasting notes
Opaque ruby red with viscous texture. Nose: complex combination of baked fruit and sweet spices. Palate: full-bodied mix of dried plums and cinnamon. Fascinating aftertaste of almonds and intriguing bitter-sweet finish.
Pairing notes
Excellent food wine. Goes well with mature cheeses with bite, sweet pastries and dried fruit. The perfect accompaniment to the intense, ripe aromas of a cigar. Serving temperature: 15° C 15-20 Year aging potential.
