 Proud, majestic, complex and exuberant: this is a special cru version 
of Masi’s gentle giant, Costasera. A benchmark for the Amarone category, 
which, together with Barolo and Brunello, makes up the aristocracy of the 
Italian wine world. Here 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 fi nest wood types. The expert use of 
indigenous grapes for the Valpolicella Classica area - Corvina, Rondinella 
and Molinara – is enriched by the addition of the unique Oseleta, a grape 
variety rediscovered by Masi.
