Producer

Producer

The Masseto vineyards extend across clay-limestone soils, providing optimal drainage and promoting the slow ripening of the grapes. The Mediterranean climate, with hot summers and mild winters, allows the vines to produce exceptionally high-quality fruit. The vines are cultivated with care, respecting natural cycles to guarantee an authentic expression of the terroir. Each plot is carefully selected for its potential, contributing to the creation of wines of great complexity.

Owner and history

The Masseto estate is currently managed by the Frescobaldi family, who have a long winemaking tradition in Tuscany. Their commitment to excellence and passion for wine are reflected in every bottle they produce. In harmony with nature, the family strives to preserve the authenticity of the terroir while innovating to offer wines of exceptional quality. Their vision is to share the beauty of Tuscany through wines that tell a story—the story of a place and exceptional winemaking expertise.

Vinification and aging

Winemaking at Domaine Masseto is a refined art. The hand-harvested grapes are carefully sorted before being vinified in stainless steel tanks, allowing for controlled fermentation. Aging takes place in oak barrels, where the wine develops its structure and complexity. Thanks to meticulous attention to detail, each step is designed to respect the integrity of the fruit and reveal the best of this unique terroir. This painstaking process results in a wine that combines power and finesse.
