Masi 1990 Mazzano Red (Amarone della Valpolicella Classico)

This is wonderfully integrated and complex, offering a dizzying array of spices that blend seamlessly with notes of leather and cherries. Wonderfully velvety in texture and round in the mouth, but also boasting a long, spice-filled finish. A tremendous effort. Drink now–2020.  — J.C.  (12/31/2006)

Masi 2000 Mazzano Red (Amarone della Valpolicella Classico)

  1. $140
Shows more leather and cedar than the Campolongo di Torbe, but even more richness and intensity. Slightly pruny, dried-fruit notes are accompanied by hints of apricot, game and dried spices. Lush and long on the finish; the best of the 2000s. It’s approachable, but age-worthy.  — J.C.  (12/31/2006)

Masi 2004 Mazzano Red (Amarone della Valpolicella Classico)

  1. $170
Wow, what a wine! Masi’s Mazzano takes the best of Valpolicella and magnifies it by one thousand percent. There’s dense richness and softness here followed by savory notes of spice, cured meat, leather, barbecue sauce, dried ginger and plum cake. The tannins are extra polished and fine.  — M.L.  (12/1/2011)

Mazzano is a very special expression of Amarone with seamless integration and persistency. The beauty is that it delivers power and elegance, intensity and sophistication without missing a beat. There are firm tannins here followed by soft layers of spice, leather and ripe fruit.  — M.L.  (2/1/2011)

Masi 2001 Mazzano Red (Amarone della Valpolicella Classico)

  • Cellar Selection
  • Online Exclusive
  1. $198
Here’s a beautifully aged Amarone from an excellent vintage. Masi’s Mazzano is a benchmark wine for Valpolicella thanks to its intriguing complexity of aromas: black cherry, dried fruit, porcini mushroom, dark chocolate, vanilla bean and dark resin like the kind you’d smell in an antique furniture shop. The wine has a slightly brownish hue and remarkable penetration.  — M.L.  (12/1/2008)

Masi 2003 Serego Alighieri Vaio Armaron Red (Amarone della Valpolicella Classico)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $77
Vaio Armaron is a rich and opulent Amarone with oak-driven tones of spice, leather and tobacco that stand in pretty contrast against the wine’s fresh berry fruit. The mouthfeel is dense, velvety and long.  — M.L.  (2/1/2011)

Masi 1990 Campolongo di Torbe Red (Amarone della Valpolicella Classico)

The bouquet is smoky and meaty in character, without obvious fruit, but waves of cherries and prunes emerge on the palate. This is still richly textured and tannic. Hold.  — J.C.  (12/31/2006)

This gorgeous wine exhibits beautiful sophistication and austere aromas of elegant spice, candied fruit, licorice and maple syrup. It has aged beautifully thus far and promises a bright future ahead.
