Masi Vaio Amaron Serego Alighieri
Vintage: | 2015 |
---|---|
Description: | Wine Enthusiast 96 Points - "Perfectly ripe aromas of black plums and black cherries, both brooding and elegant, rush out of the glass. Supported by notes of Dutch cocoa, espresso, and a dried bouquet of herbs and flowers. The lush palate is full of dark fruit flavors with fine and firm tannins and a pop of acidity." Jeff Porter. James Suckling 95 Points - "a minimally invasive style, replete with a waft of cherry wood cask serving as an intentionally oxidative confluence with more traditional Slavonian oak. More clay in the soils here. Bitter and pithy and wild and energetic, splaying maraschino cherry, almond husk, fennel and walnut husk long and broad. Drink or hold." - Ned Goodwin, Mw. An important Amarone with extraordinary power and complexity: a classic in the Italian winemaking portfolio. This is the icon wine of the historic Serego Alighieri estate and comes from the eponymous vineyard, the source it seems of the very name Amarone itself. This noble wine is produced using time-honoured practices in the vineyard, in the ancient drying lofts and in the cellars. Its elegant personality is enhanced by the use of the Serego Alighieri clone of the Molinara grape and by ageing in cherry-wood casks, as family tradition dictates.
