Masi Modello Venezie Rosso

Though run by the Boscaini family for six generations, it is really in the last fifty years that Masi has established itself as one of the Veneto’s most innovative wine producers. In the late 1950s, they identified certain historic vineyard plots which are vinified as Amarone and bottled separately to this day.

In 1964, they launched the now-legendary Campofiorin, which revived the technique of a second fermentation with semi-dried grapes. Masi have also rescued the ancient Oseleta variety from extinction, and continue to use it in two of their celebrated Super venetian wines.

Tasting Notes

Pleasant bouquet of bitter cherries and violet. Rich, lively, fruity palate. Well-balanced with a good structure and a long finish.

From selected foothills vineyards in the Venetian area, particularly in the Strà del Milione estate at Castions di Strada, Friuli.
