Masseto IGT Toscana
Share

Born in 1986, Masseto is a 'cru' whose eponymous vineyards cover just 7 hectares. They are located within the Tenuta dell'Ornellaia, which cultivates a total of 97 hectares on the Tuscan coast. The Masseto is a single-varietal Merlot of great structure and longevity. The annual production is strictly limited and is based on a rigorous selection that springs from the idea of excellence.

monumental accompaniment to festive dishes with red meat, rich side dishes or as an inspiration for special moments on its own.

Dark and rich crimson. Powerful bouquet, scented with wild berries and precious woods, accompanied by dark chocolate, some leather and musk. Very juicy and compact in the mouth with a lot of finesse. Intense berry aromas and the most beautiful roasted notes of precious wood form the middle and the almost endless aftertaste convinces with great harmony and persistence.

Petit Verdot 3 %,
Cabernet Franc 16 %,
Merlot 27 %,
Cabernet Sauvignon 54 %
Maturity and a balanced sensual taste are the two characteristics that best describe the Ornellaia 2009. A vintage born from an initially cool, then warm wine year, in which only the precisely timed harvest date ensured that freshness and aromatic quality were preserved. The fragrance spectrum of these wines is broad and clear, with the fine spiciness of fully ripe fruit combined with pleasant accents of aromatic herbs or chocolate. The harmonious volume immediately unfolds in the mouth, while fully preserving the fine taste, with an extremely delicate and silky tannin, which is carried by a lively and acidic-fresh note at the end without any astringency.
