The Campofiorin is considered a 'ripasso' wine. The wine is crafted using a blend of Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara grapes, which are characteristic of the Valpolicella area.

On the nose, it delivers an alluring bouquet of ripe cherries, plums, and hints of spice, creating a rich and inviting aromatic profile.

The flavors of red berries, especially cherry, dominate, intertwined with subtle notes of vanilla and cinnamon from oak aging. The tannins are smooth and well-integrated, leading to a lingering and satisfying finish. This wine pairs perfectly with grilled meats, pasta dishes with red sauce, and aged cheeses. Its versatility makes it an excellent choice for a wide range of culinary experiences. Brolo Campofiorin is a testament to the artistry of Masi Agricola and their dedication to producing wines of exceptional quality and character. Its unique winemaking process and carefully selected grapes result in a wine that embodies the essence of the Veneto region.
