Massetino, 2nd Wine of Masseto 2022

Masseto is one of Italy's most prestigious fine-wine estates, situated in the coastal region of Bolgheri, Tuscany. Its vineyards occupy a remarkable hillside renowned for its dense blue clay soils, which provide ideal conditions for producing exceptional Merlot. Originally established as part of Tenuta dell'Ornellaia, Masseto developed an international reputation for wines combining extraordinary concentration, elegance and longevity. The estate is now an independent winery dedicated exclusively to its flagship Masseto and second wine, Massetino. Its meticulous vineyard management, parcel-by-parcel vinification and sophisticated oak ageing have established Masseto among the world's most sought-after Super Tuscan producers.

Massetino is the second wine of Masseto, crafted from carefully selected Merlot parcels with a supporting proportion of Cabernet Franc. Introduced in 2017, it shares the estate's distinctive blue-clay terroir and meticulous winemaking philosophy. Offering a more approachable expression of Masseto, it combines richness, elegance and impressive ageing potential.
