The Amarone Classico "Costasera", in Magnum format, by Masi is unequivocally recognized as a point of reference for this type of wine, if not even among the great Italian reds. The winery is historically rooted in the heart of Valpolicella and in the Venetian area, where sublime wines are born, thanks to a tenacious and expert technique matured over time, combining tradition and innovation. Corvina, Rondinella and Molinara grapes come from soils with the presence of basalt and different types of soil. Differences that enhance the quality of the red once assembled. The coasts facing the sunset are considered the best for producing an incomparable Amarone. In fact, here the day lasts longer and the vineyards benefit from more heat , an advantage also amplified by the positive proximity of Lake Garda, which reflects the sunlight and caresses the environment with its milder climate.
