The name “Grandarella” evokes the image of the grape (grano) laid out to dry on bamboo racks (arele). The wine is made using the Appassimento method that is Masi’s speciality in the Valpolicella area. The same technique is used here with grapes from the Grave region, where good natural ventilation favours the process.
