Description
History
Tenuta Maso Corno is a winery located in the Lessini Mountains in Italy. The cellar extends onto a terrace suspended over the Ala stream and overlooks the Adige valley. The dolomite-limestone soil and the foothills air together with the morning exposure make the wines of Maso Corno unique. The winery uses grapes that have been grown for over thirty years and have developed characteristics of robustness, generating wines of character and class. The owner, Giulio Larcher, has expanded the cultivation of vines throughout the property using offspring clones of the original vines and making choices that respect the historical-environmental typicality and quality.

Intense straw yellow color with golden reflections, very fine and persistent perlage. On the nose notes of golden apple, pear, citrus fruits, yeasts, bread crust and toasted hazelnuts, with a background of chalky minerality. On the palate it is creamy, fine and enveloping, with a marked freshness and a decisive note on the finish.
