The 2016 Amarone Classico Costasera wafts up with rich notes of custard, cinnamon and dark chocolate before revealing its black cherry fruit. This is silky-smooth yet deep with herbal-tinged red and blue berries along with exotic inner florals. There’s a beautiful harmony here, as purple-tinged florals and autumnal spices linger incredibly long. The 2016 is only lightly structured, full of character and incredibly elegant. It’s a balanced pleasure bomb of an Amarone. (Eric Guido, Vinous, April 2022)

Masi Costasera Amarone Classico 2016, with its 15% alcohol content, presents itself in a medium purple hue, showcasing a youthful vitality that betrays no signs of age. Upon nosing, this wine exudes an intense bouquet of cherry and plum, accompanied by subtle undertones of liquorice, chocolate, dried rosemary flower, vanilla, and sandalwood.

On the palate, the wine's silky tannins offer a velvety texture that envelopes the senses. It boasts a full-bodied nature, leaving a lingering finish that is complemented by its notable acidity, a hallmark of quality craftsmanship. To recommend this wine as sumptuous would be an understatement. Its addictive allure is undeniable, making it an excellent choice for any delightful occasion. Whether indulged in now or given the opportunity to mature gracefully in the cellar, the Masi Costasera Amarone Classico 2016 receives a distinguished score of 97, solidifying its status as a standout choice for wine enthusiasts.

2016. Hearty full bodied with flavors of dried plum and date. Long lasting tannins and flavors, like including coffee.
