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 winery uses grapes that have been grown for over thirty years and have developed characteristics of robustness, generating wines of character and class.

Tasting notes

The straw yellow color with greenish reflections and the immediate hints of elderflower and aromatic herbs of Declivi at Maso Corno lead you to approach this Sauvignon Blanc with ease, which conquers the taster from the first sip.
In the mouth it enters soft and full-bodied, with the clear volumetric perception of a consistency that can be “chewed”. This is followed, remaining for a long time, by the pleasant freshness and marked sapidity.
The persistence of the aromas in the mouth is also long, revealing the highly enjoyable, well-balanced varietal aroma.

Possible combinations

Perfect to be appreciated in all its aromatic nuances if drunk by the glass for lovers of the genre. Goes well with delicate dishes based on asparagus or fish dishes with herbs.
