87 PTS WILFRED WONG. An incredible surprise! The innocent '99 Masi Renzo Chianti Rufina in a wicker basket surpasses many Chiantis in the $8-$10 range; truly delicious, an absolutely fantastic buy!

Powerful, yet refined, the Masi Amarone is a rather polshed and almost gentle giant; at 15% alcohol, this full flavored red wine is perfect with a mutton stew.

The Masi Serego Aligheri is an easy-going Tuscan red; soft and light, with pleasing red fruit flavors; delightful finish.

90 PTS WILFRED WONG. A finely made Veneto white, the active '09 Masi Masianco serves up dried citrus, peach fuzz and persistent minerality; perky and crisp on the palate and in the finish.

87 PTS WINE SPECTATOR. The '00 Masi Deliciously fresh, with spicy dried fruit and leather character; medium-bodied, with a tangy, spicy palate and finish; classic Amarone; best after 2004.
