A majestic limited-edition expression featuring a bold, deep ruby hue. The intense bouquet unfolds with rich aromas of baked plums, black cherries, sweet spice, and roasted coffee. Velvety and full-bodied on the palate, it delivers concentrated stewed fruit flavors framed by soft, supple tannins and a remarkably long, persistent finish.
Food Pairing: Pairs perfectly with braised beef short ribs, roasted wild game, duck breast in plum sauce, and aged cheeses like Parmigiano Reggiano.
Vinous
The 2020 Amarone Classico Costasera takes its time blossoming in the glass. It is dusty and hauntingly dark, with a whiff of dried flowers and crushed rocks that slowly evolve into wild blueberries, shavings of dark chocolate and nuances of mint. Elegant and refined, it has silken textures and a contrasting mix of sour cherries offset by sweet spice and a twang of blood orange. A coating of fine tannins frames the finish as the 2020 leaves savory herbal tones and hints of clove that linger on and on. This is a fantastic vintage for the Costasera, which I expect may get even better with time.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The Masi 2020 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Costasera (made with 70% Corvina, 25% Rondinella and 5% Molinara) shows dark fruit ripeness with meaty cherry and blackberry. Thanks to the younger vintage, you can appreciate the wine's primary intensity. A potent 15% alcohol content and a full-bodied texture sets this bottle up for a pairing with polenta and sausage. Tart cherry appears as a final send-off.
