Young guardian and creator of Massimago
Camilla Rossi Chauvenet
“Massimago from a warm country home became an artist’s studio, a creative workshop, my real workroom for my thoughts.
Till 12 years It’s rising among others wineries as a Company with a clear identity.
Massimago and I are tightly holding our hands, step by step, sooner or later we shall arrive, but please do not hurry us, time in nature is slow and unstoppable.”

Massimago - The Sound of Wine
My eyes have contemplated the spectacle of the grape harvest one hundred and twenty-seven times. I have talked enough about the moonlight . Don’t ask me about anything else. Just listen to the voice of the vines when there is no longer a breath of wind. I am Massimago.
One glass is not enough. A wine is a great wine if it enters in the daily routine of the people. Curiosity belongs to those who believe that there is always something different. Irony belongs to those who observes thoughtlessly a world always more elitist. Trust belongs to those who identify themselves simply in things.
Wool interlaced in a single frame. A glass, a candle, pepper sprinkled on the table. For the first time the Valpolicella Superiore has changed its name and has acquired its own identity.

Crispy green apple slices, a delicate vine that bends in a fragrant citrus-scented breeze. I wanted to give my Garganega the opportunity to express herself in a different way. I wanted her to finally become a real lady; she introduces herself with a citrus bouquet almost grapefruit-like. The slow gentle drying of her grapes has concentrated 50 years of...
To paint, it is essential to known f lavour s understand the primary colours. Natural and direct fruit of our grapes. The Valpolicella reflects the authentic expression of the land from which it comes from. I like thinking about the spontaneity of a product which shows itself differently every year. This year reminds you of crunchy cherries, aromatic...
