| Taste | On the palate, an almost Bordeaux-like impact due to the tartaric vein, induced by the cool vintage, and the studied, classic balance that sustains the correspondence of pulpy and spicy fruit, shrewdly compensated by fine tannic grit that gives it character. |

Description
At the 'heart' of the Masciarelli story. From the private and professional bond between Gianni and Marina, the product line that bears his name was born in 1991. Composed of no less than 6 references, the Marina Cvetic line is characterised by the presence of pure international vines (Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay) alongside Montepulciano and Trebbiano. The interpretation offered is original and with character: structured and elegant, Marina Cvetic wines are a "voice out of the chorus" for the most demanding and discerning palates.

Wine production – while also having a small production of extra virgin olive oil – now has 22 labels and seven product lines: Classic Line, Gianni Masciarelli, Villa Gemma, Marina Cvetic and Castello di Semivicoli. Villa Gemma, Iskra, Marina Cvetic, Castello di Semivicoli, Gianni Masciarelli, Linea Classica e La Botte di Gianni.
In the constant and renewed work for innovation, but with respect for the environment and tradition, Masciarelli inaugurated, after a long restoration, Castello di Semivicoli, a seventeenth-century baronial mansion, which is now a Relais de Charme in the vineyards, a driving force of wine tourism in the area.
