The wine

Opening a bottle is like unleashing a liquid kaleidoscope. A rare combination of sumptuous opulence and refined elegance. In homage to its vigor, its softness and the enormous debt towards the soil from which it originates, Masseto owes its name to the hard blocks of blue clay, called 'massi', which form on the surface of the vineyard.

The color is almost black, the nose reveals a rich and mature expression of black fruits, with spicy and licorice notes. On the palate, the wine manages to combine a great intensity and ripeness of the fruits with a remarkable sense of balance and freshness. The tannins create a dense and velvety structure, with a persistent fruity finish and a vibrant acidity that give a touch of freshness.
