Toscana IGT Massetino 2021 Masseto

It is the cadet wine of the famous Tenuta Masseto, which manages a wonderful vineyard near Bolgheri, characterized by precious blue clay soils of ancient marine origin. The extraordinary brightness of the place, combined with the beneficial influence of the sea breezes, allow Merlot and Cabernet Franc to mature perfectly, with a particularly elegant and intense profile.

Fermentation takes place in conical-shaped concrete tanks, at a controlled temperature of 28-30 ° C and with a maceration on the skins for about 30 days. The wine matures in a French oak barrique for about 12 months and completes the refinement in the bottle.

Harmonious and rich, it has a dark red color and beautiful notes of ripe cherries, currants, blackberries, spicy and balsamic hints. Velvety tannins and a satisfying fruit make the sip pleasant and balanced.

To be combined with first courses with meat sauces, mixed grills and roasts.
