✨ Technical Specifications
Masi's Modello Rosato is a vibrant testament to the contemporary Venetian lifestyle, crafted by the legendary Boscaini family who have championed the region's viticulture for generations. Sourced from selected vineyards in the fertile plains of the Delle Venezie, this rosé is typically crafted from local red varieties such as Refosco and Raboso. The grapes benefit from a terroir shaped by alluvial soils and a climate moderated by the nearby Adriatic Sea and alpine breezes. Masi utilizes soft-pressing and temperature-controlled fermentation to preserve the bright, primary fruit aromas of wild strawberries and raspberries, resulting in a fresh, modern rosato that pays homage to the historic, hospitable spirit of the Veneto region.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1772 when the Boscaini family acquired premium vineyards in the small valley named 'Vaio dei Masi', Masi Agricola has grown into one of the most iconic and respected estates in Veneto's Valpolicella Classica zone. Managed for generations by the Boscaini family, the winery has become globally renowned for championing and modernizing the traditional appassimento method, transforming indigenous grapes such as Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara into rich, age-worthy masterpieces. In addition to creating the revolutionary 'Supervenetian' Campofiorin in the 1960s and collaborating with the historic Serego Alighieri counts, Masi is celebrated worldwide for its benchmark Amarone della Valpolicella expressions, including the prestigious Costasera, Mazzano, and Campolongo di Torbe.
