Product Notes

Masi Grandarella is an exquisite Italian wine, known for its rich depth of flavour and tremendous complexity. Made primarily from Refosco grapes dried using the historic "Appassimento" method, it's a full-bodied, robust wine with unique characteristics. Its delicate aroma showcases hints of preserved cherries and cocoa, stirring the senses. On the palate, it reveals pronounced notes of ripe red fruit, spice and a touch of vanilla. Masi Grandarella's vibrant acidity and robust tannins harmoniously balance its sweet undertones, culminating in a lingering, satisfying finish. Ideal for appreciators of luxurious, sophisticated wines.

Tasting Notes

Dark, opaque red. On the nose dry and aromatic herbs, berry fruit and vanilla. Full-bodied, complex, well-balanced, with strong hints of blueberries, plums, cinnamon and spices.
