Masi Costasera Amarone Classico 2012

Time for another Amarone. This is the Masi Costasera Amarone Classico from 2012. The ABV is 15%. Deep taste of cherry, leather and some tobacco. Very strong but nice but quite expensive.

Two wines from Italy, Pian Del Griso and Bianca Vigna

The wine Pian Del Griso Conti Bossi Fedrigotti is from the produer Masi and this is a white wine made of Pinot Grigio grapes from Valdige in Italy. Masi is a big and famous wineproducer in Italy and is very known for some of their red wines. The grapes used for this wine is grown at 300 meters of height. The vintage is 2018 and the ABV is 12,5%.  I get a lot of pear in this wine with some citrus and minerality. A good pinot grigio.

Next wine is a sparkling wine  called Bianca Vigna Cuvee 1902 from the producer with the same name, Bianca Vigna. It is a non vintage wine and has an BV of 11,5%. The wine is from Veneto in Italy. This is a nice Spumante with a taste of citrus and some brioche.

From south to north

The grape greco is used to produce the wine wine DOGC Greco di Tufo in Campania in southern Italy. One producer from Campania is Feudi di San Gregorio. I have tasted their Taurasi before but now it is time for their white wine Greco di Tufo from 2013. It is a strong wine but very well tasting. Notes of apples, pears and minerals. Very good and can be probably stored for a couple of more years before drinking.

Going north we have the Soave region and this time I taste to the big producer Masi and their white wine Levarie Soave. This wine is also from 2013. The taste is  fresh, pears and some citrus. A decent wine.

Three white Italians

I love Italian wine. And this time it is time for three different white Italian wines. First up is Zecci Classico from 2010 by producer Piersanti. It is made of the grape verdicchio and from the DOC Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi. The smell is clear and very distinct. The taste is sharp and full of citrus and a hint of oak. The taste lingers long in the mouth with a dry finish. Very good for drinking of with food.
Next wine is from Sicily is made of the grape Chardonnay. Producer Cusamano has made the wine angimbé from 2012. The taste is of pear and apples. A perfect summerwine when the sun is shining. Very good.
The last wine tasted is producer Masis white wine Masiano from 2012 made by grapes from Pinot Grigio and verduzzo. The taste of this wine has a big citrus character with big acidity. Definately need food with his wine. I think that fish would go perfectly with this wine.
