Masseto is an extraordinary wine produced with Merlot grapes sourced from various plots on the Masseto hill in Tuscany. The grapes are handpicked in 15 kg crates and vinified separately according to the vineyard parcel.

After bottling, the Masseto 2020 is left to refine for another 12 months in the bottle before being released to the market.
