2020 Masi Costasera Amarone Classico

外觀：深寶石紅，近乎濃黑的酒色。香氣：乾甜黑櫻桃、李子與無花果的濃郁果乾香，夾帶紫羅蘭花香與一抹香草／香料（肉桂、丁香），底層有可可與濃縮咖啡的苦甜調。口感：酒體飽滿而有彈性，果實濃厚但不笨重，單寧細緻且有磨砂感，酸度支撐整體讓風味延展得長而精準。釀造重點是傳統的風乾（appassimento）工法，讓葡萄風味更集中，木桶陳年低調襯托酒體。適合先醒一小時再喝，配烤鴨、牛與鹿等紅肉或濃郁起司最合拍。酒莊背景與田地：來自Valpolicella古典產區山坡地塊，氣候與土壤賦予乾果與礦質感，家族釀造傳承與細緻控管是這款酒穩定度與陳年潛力的關鍵。

Look: deep, very dark ruby. Nose: concentrated baked and dried fruit—black cherry, plum and fig—lifted by violet florals and subtle balsamic notes. Background hints of cocoa, freshly ground coffee, cinnamon and clove add spice and complexity. Palate: powerful and full-bodied but composed; dense fruit carries through with ripe, velvety tannins and a balancing acidity that keeps the wine fresh. Oak is present but discreet, framing rather than dominating. Made using the traditional appassimento appassimento drying method to concentrate aromas and structure; aged carefully to integrate tannin, alcohol and spice. Producer notes praise its balance and long aging potential; cellaring through 2035–2045 will reveal further tertiary complexity. Serve slightly cool for reds (around 16–18°C) after decanting (about 1 hour) to open aromas and soften initial grip. Excellent with rich red meats, game, intense risottos and aged cheeses.
