The 2016 Masseto is a masterful vintage: intense black fruit, blackberries, plum, and cassis converge with notes of tobacco, dark cacao, graphite, and underbrush. On the palate it is broad yet refined, boasting polished tannins, bright acidity, and a long, mineral finish that lingers. The magnum format will likely enhance its evolution, softening more slowly and offering a grand, layered experience over decades.
Masseto is a legendary single‑vineyard Merlot estate in Bolgheri, conceived as the ultimate expression of the clay and volcanic soils of its hilltop site. The winemaking is meticulous—low yields, rigorous sorting, separate vinification of lots, and extended aging in new French oak. Masseto wines are known for their power, purity, and longevity, combining density with elegance.
