      Masseto 2021

      This is one of the most famous Super Tuscan wines and is produced by Tenuta dell'Ornellaia. Masseto was launched for the first time in 1984, with production totalling around 35,000 bottles a year.

      Vineyard: The bunches are selected in the vineyard, with the berries then sorted after destemming. Fermentation took place spontaneously with indigenous yeasts at temperatures of around 25-28°C, with pumping over two or three times a day and destages when necessary. The total time spent in the vats ranged from 21 to 28 days. Malolactic fermentation took place in 100% new oak barrels, keeping the various batches separate during the first 12 months of ageing. The wines were then blended and returned to the barrels for a further year, totalling 24 months.
