The Story
Selected Masi vineyards on the “Strà del Milione” estate at Castions di Strada in Friuli. The soil is formed of sedimentary clay that overlays ancient gravel beds.
Dark, opaque red with intense violet reflections. Impressive on the nose with firm aromas of blueberries and plums together with sweet hints of vanilla and cocoa. Full-bodied on the palate with attractive hints of cherry jam. The obvious tannins are well balanced with supporting acidity, lasting with a long and very dry finish.
A complex and wonderfully structured wine, an ideal companion for grilled or roasted red meats, game, strongly flavoured cheeses, or drunk just on its own after a meal. Ideally serve at 18°C in large glasses.
