More info

In the upper Valpolicella, vineyards sit at an altitude ideal for the creation of light, refreshing rosé wines. The Merlot used in Rosa dei Masi is grown up to 720 metres up the hills of the commune of Negrar. At this higher altitude, the wines maintain the acidity necessary for a refreshing rosé. Moreover, the altitude ensures a large diurnal range.

Very soft pressing of the grapes at a very low temperature ensures the wine keeps its acidity and aromas, while allowing a gentle extraction of colour and tannin. The fermentation temperature is likewise cool (13-16°C) before the wine matures in stainless steel on its fine lees for 60 days.

Masi

Though run by the Boscaini family for six generations, it is really in the last fifty years that Masi has established itself as one of the Veneto’s most innovative wine producers. In the late 1950s, they identified certain historic vineyard plots which are vinified as Amarone and bottled separately to this day. In 1964, they launched the now-legendary Campofiorin, which revived the technique of a second fermentation with semi-dried grapes. Masi have also rescued the ancient Oseleta variety from extinction, and continue to use it in two of their celebrated “Supervenetian” wines.
