This 1993 Amarone from Masi represents the classical expression of Valpolicella's most ambitious wine, crafted from the traditional blend of Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara grapes dried according to the appassimento method. The extended maceration and élevage have yielded a wine of considerable structure and complexity, with the bottle age of three decades now offering the drinker a mature perspective on its original power. At 15 percent alcohol, the wine carries the weight and gravitas characteristic of the vintage and appellation, displaying the dried-fruit character and developing tertiary notes expected from this prolonged evolution. Serve this with braised game birds, aged cheeses, or contemplative solitude, a wine for reflection rather than occasion.
