Description

Tenuta Masseto, located in Bolgheri on the Tuscan coast, is a legendary name in the wine world.

Known and renowned for its namesake wine, a pure Merlot of extraordinary elegance and power, Masseto represents absolute excellence and luxury in the international wine scene.

The estate stands on a unique clay hillside. This exceptional terroir is characterized by soils composed mainly of bluish marine clays, which give the wine structure, intensity and an extraordinary freshness.

The Mediterranean climate, mitigated by the proximity of the Tyrrhenian Sea, ensures optimal exposure and slow and regular ripening of the grapes. The unique combination of soil, climate and exposure makes the Masseto vineyard a special place, capable of producing a wine that has no equal.

Masseto is synonymous with perfection. Every stage of production is conducted with maniacal care, from work in the vineyard to winemaking and aging. The estate’s philosophy is to let the terroir speak through the wine, respecting the unique characteristics of each vintage.

Harvesting is strictly manual, with careful selection of grapes to ensure that only the best bunches arrive at the winery. Here, winemaking takes place in small batches, allowing absolute control over every step of the process.

The winery, which opened in 2019, is a masterpiece of design and functionality, designed to blend harmoniously with the landscape and provide ideal conditions for winemaking and aging.

The barrels used for aging are selected with extreme care, ensuring that each wine best expresses its unique personality.

Limited production and attention to detail make each vintage an object of desire for collectors and enthusiasts around the world.
