Masi Costasera Amarone della Valpolicella Classico CNY Year of Snake 2019 750ml










This limited-edition 2019 Costasera Amarone is Masi’s rich tribute to the Year of the Snake—a bold yet elegant expression of Amarone that’s all about depth and character. Expect layers of dried plum, cherry, spice, and a touch of chocolatey warmth, all wrapped in a velvety texture. Smooth, powerful, and made for slow sipping (or aging, if you can wait), it’s a wine that celebrates introspection, complexity, and quiet strength—just like the Snake itself.

Rich and spicy on the nose with dried-berry, plum, walnut and bark aromas and flavors. Lush and velvety on the palate with depth and generosity to the fruit. Sweetish, chocolatey aftertaste. Chunky. Drink or hold.
