Masi Campofiorin Rosso Verona 2020 750 ml

The 2020 Campofiorin is a distant cousin of Amarone in that its made with semi-dried grapes. This process of "leggero appassimento" gives the wine that extra oomph and richness to stand up to hearty meat or game dishes. Despite that extra power and concentration, the wine makes room for delicate notes of black current and pressed rose petal. Spice and cured tobacco fill in the rear. This 2017 vintage shows balance and a tight spot of fresh acidity. (Monica Larner May 2017)
