Drink Seminar: Masi Amarone: Italy's Gentle Giant Returns

Event Description

Masi has long promoted Amarone as a cellar-worthy wine, on par with the other great Italian reds. In fact, it may age even better. The 7th-generation Boscaini family of Masi has long argued for the long life of their Costasera Amarones and has set out to demonstrate this point by maturing their best vintages in their own family cellar, and then releasing the old vintages when they are mature to show how great they can be. One of these vintages has been released just for Cornucopia, and it will be compared to current vintages, as well as other historic Masi wines and Riserva Amarone, and even the stunning Recioto.

Join Masi Ambassador James Bornn for this special edition of one of Cornucopia perennial sell-out seminars!

Presenter: James Bornn
