Masi 1997 Costasera Amarone 750ml

Immediately impressive, with an ultraripe nose of blackcurrants, nuts and blueberries. The flavors follow suit, giving the palate a dense black plum and cocoa coating. Fat and plush, with very broad, well-structured tannins, this is tempting now, and should be even better in three to five years. Cellar Selection.
