The Passionate Piano's Vintage Tune
Often referred to as the 'Pétrus of Italy', the varietal certainly did not miss a beat with its 1999 rendition. The eloquence of Merlot grapes reaches a crescendo, revealing an orchestra of flavours that would make even Bacchus himself lend an ear. Framed by an unusually wet spring followed by a hot and dry summer, this powerfully opulent vintage was paced to perfection. Thanks to this climatic caprice, we are treated to a wine with both strength in its youth and grace in its maturity.
Affirming its Allegiance to Terroir
The 1999 year allowed Tuscany's alluvial soils and maritime climate to play a sublime harmony that allows for complex interaction between the rootstock and soil, inducing profound depth to the ensuing wine. This captivating dance culminates in robustness balanced carefully with plush elegance.

In conclusion, requiem notes of dark cherries and whispers of dark chocolate encapsulate the wine’s sophisticated palate, leaving a lingering symphony of flavours. A true star of 1999's Italian wine scene, the Masseto provides more than just a passion project for collectors - it beckons a sound investment that enlivens any cellar with its vibrant Tuscan charm.
