Angelorum

Angelorum Recioto della Valpolicella Classico DOCG is a prestigious traditional sweet dessert wine from Valpolicella Classica, crafted from the native varieties Corvina, Rondinella and Molinara using Masi’s time honoured appassimento drying technique. The grapes are selected from hillside sites and laid out to dry on bamboo racks in winter, a process that concentrates sugars and aromas to produce a wine that is both aromatic and opulent.

In the glass Angelorum reveals intense aromas of preserved cherries, morello cherries and dried fruit, supported by notes of hazelnut and warm spice that develop with time. The palate balances sweetness with a bright acidity and a smooth, refined texture, offering a long, complex finish that makes it an outstanding after dinner wine.

Serve Angelorum slightly chilled and enjoy it with country style desserts, fruit tarts, pastries and traditional panettone; it is also an excellent match with gorgonzola and other blue cheeses that play off its sweetness and acidity. The wine has remarkable ageing potential — it can evolve for around 20 years, the first five years highlighting its fresh sweet fruit character and the following 15–18 years allowing spicy, evolved tertiary aromas to develop until the wine approaches the style of a tawny Port
