At a time when the SAQ is announcing future price hikes on bottles of wine, the search for affordable wines is more than topical.
The Modello Masi wines, which we’ve recently had the chance to rediscover through samples received, are notable for their versatility, combining quality and affordability.
Available for only $15, they’re the perfect companions for your weekday suppers.
Masi Modello – Pinot Grigio Delle Venezie
Vinified in stainless steel vats to preserve its freshness, this Pinot Grigio opens with fruity aromas of green apples, pears and melon, with a hint of citrus.
Backed by invigorating acidity, it’s ideal as an aperitif or to pair with antipasti platters, grilled vegetables, fish dishes and Asian cuisine. Available at the SAQ.
Masi Modello Merlot Trevenezie
This all-Merlot red wine is more than easy to enjoy. Vinified at the end of October in stainless steel tanks, it reveals a silky texture and notes of prune, raspberry and cherry with a peppery finish.
Its soft tannins make it an excellent choice to accompany charcuterie, roasted meats, pork as well as pasta in tomato sauce and pizza. A versatile choice for accompanying meals that will appeal to everyone. Available at the SAQ
