About this product

Bold. Elegant. Veneto's crown jewel.
Massimago’s flagship Amarone, crafted by Camilla Rossi Chauvenet, embodies the pinnacle of traditional appassimento with organic finesse. Sourced from southwest-facing, limestone–clay crus in Mezzane di Sotto, this is a fully-fledged, opulent wine that marries intensity with precision — a sophisticated choice for collectors and connoisseurs alike.

Why we love it:
This is Amarone with soul — rich, structured, and beautifully balanced. It delivers the full power of appassimento without heaviness, thanks to organic farming and elegant winemaking. Every glass tells a story of craft and care: wild herbs from Mezzane’s hillsides, sun-dried grapes, and deep, velvety fruit layered with spice. A collector’s wine that also brings joy at the table.

Italy

Valpolicella DOCG

  • Corvina
  • Corvinone
  • Rondinella

Colour
Straw-yellow with pale green reflections.

Nose
Zesty grapefruit, lime, green apple, and delicate white flowers with a flinty lift.

Palate
Clean yet textured — juicy citrus and orchard fruit, crisp acidity, glycerine complexity, and a long mineral-fresh finish.

A regal match with:

  • Dry-aged porterhouse steak or venison
  • Slow-roasted wild boar or braised oxtail
  • Rich game stews and hearty ragùs
  • Long-aged Italian cheeses (Parmigiano-Reggiano, aged Pecorino)
  • Dark chocolate desserts or walnut platter.

Serve at 16–18 °C in large glasses; cellars beautifully for 8–10+ years, often much longer.
