Description:

2006 Masi Costasera Amarone
"Pretty blueberry and cherry aromas on the nose, with lovely intensity. Full-bodied, round and juicy, with loads of fruit and a soft, caressing palate. Long finish. So good now. Drink now through 2018. 35,000 cases made" -91 Points - Wine Spectator

"The 2006 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Costasera is a beautiful version of this wine. The medium-bodied 2006 Costasera offers up an attractive array of ripe red cherries, flowers, spices and sweet herbs, with lovely balance and tons of polish. Tar, smoke and licorice linger on the close. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2018. This is one of the strongest groups of wines I have tasted from Masi - a historic, reference-point producer in these parts - in some time." -90 Points - Antonio Galloni

WINEMAKING:
From Masi’s hillside vineyards on west and south-west facing slopes in the historic Valpolicella Classico communes of Marano, Negrar, S.Ambrogio and San Pietro in Cariano. The soil is crumbly red calcareous (limestone) with cretaceous period marl."

"Amarone is the product of the wine-making method well known to the Romans called "appassimento" (grape drying). At the end of September or the beginning of October, the best clusters of grapes from hillside vineyards are picked and laid out on bamboo racks in special lofts equipped with the NASA “natural appassimento” control system. At the end of January the grapes weigh 35% less and have concentrated sugars. This time only the Corvina grapes were naturally attacked by noble rot."

"The processes that follow are: soft pressing; partial destalking; 45 days fermentation in large Slavonian oak barrels or stainless steel vats at low, natural temperatures; transfer into barrels of 30-40 hl where the alcoholic fermentation continues for 35 days in the presence of selected alcohol resistant yeasts; malolactic fermentation. Ageing 24 months with 80% aged in Slavonian oak barrels of 40-80 hl and 20% in small Allier and Slavonian oak barrels (40% new, 30% second usage, 30% third usage). The wine is then bottle-aged for a minimum of 4 months." -Winemaker

2006 SANSONNET LA RESERVE
Chateau Sansonnet uses Stephane Derenoncourt as their consulting winemaker, a person who is in high demand in Bordeaux and as works at these estates: La Mondotte, Pavie-Macquin, Smith Haut Lafitte, Canon La Gaffeliere, etc. Derenoncourt's hard work is appreciated worldwide, as he has recently started consulting for Rubicon in California, the top flight wine from Francis Ford Coppola's Estate.

In 2004, Jancis Robinson wrote a glowing piece on Derenoncourt and his work in Bordeaux. Derenoncourt learned about winemaking while working in the vineyards on the Right Bank during the 1980s ('82 being his first vintage in Bordeaux). He then started working at Chateau Pavie Macquin and his wines were drawing attention to the estate. After that, Derenoncourt had a pivotal meeting with Comte Stephan Von Neipperg, who wanted him to come and work for his estates (La Gaffeliere and La Mondotte among them). From then on out he's been in high demand and works at many exclusive chateaux around Bordeaux.

"This is the first vintage in which renowned winemaker Stephane Derenoncourt had total control of the production of the winery. If you thought previous vintages were great, you are in for a serious ride with the 2006. His influence is undeniable for it's elegance, power, balance and complexity, while still maintaining it's St. Emilion roots. 90% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc. I was lucky enough to blend this with Stephan and the effort is easily one of the best of all the La Reserves, this is a must own." -Gary Vaynerchuk
