Masi Campofiorin Rosso del Veronese IGT

Tasting note: Look: intense ruby red. Nose: ripe cherries and sweet spices. Palate: rich, intense cherries and berry fruit; good length and soft tannins. Campofi orin is Masi’s original ‘Supervenetian’, made with the double fermentation technique. Superior quality red wine made from freshly-picked grapes native to the Verona area is then refermented with a small percentage of the same grapes, semidried. It’s a perfect expression of the values of the Verona area: the excellence of the region, the character of the indigenous grapes and the originality of Masi’s appassimento and double fermentation techniques. Additional information: Rich, smooth and velvety, yet approachable and versatile at table. Marrying simplicity and grace with strength and majesty. Born in 1964, Campofiorin is one of the world’s best-loved traditional Italian classics, internationally recognised as a ‘wine of stupendous size and complexity’, the creator of a new category of Veneto wines inspired by the Amarone technique (Burton Anderson). With the 2020 vintage, a small stylistic evolution has been introduced: harvest is now delayed even further and there is an increase in the percentage of dried grapes to make the wine even more harmonious, well-rounded and full-bodied, with more integral fruitiness.
