Masseto 1998
$1,999.99
Ripe black plum and dried cherry are layered with cedar, tobacco, graphite and warm Mediterranean herbs. The palate is opulent but controlled, with supple tannins, fresh acidity and an earthy mineral undertone drawn from the estate’s blue-clay soils. Time has softened the structure while preserving the wine’s depth and polished texture. Stand upright before opening, decant carefully for sediment and serve with slow-braised beef, venison or mature Pecorino.

About Masseto
Masseto lies near Bolgheri on the Tuscan coast, on a hillside of blue Pliocene clay. In the 1980s, consultant André Tchelistcheff recognized the slope’s potential for Merlot. The project began within Ornellaia and now has its own gravity-flow winery.
Vineyard work is tailored to individual parcels, taking account of differences in clay, slope and exposure. In the winery, those lots remain separate through fermentation and ageing before the final selection.
