The Masseto hill is a special place... both a revelation and a mystery, as it majestically lifts its head to look out across the Mediterranean sea. This is where terroir victoriously transcends the grape varieties and where the blue clays of the Pliocene Era tell their ancient story.

Millions of years ago a deep marine substrate was deposited which transformed gradually into blue clay that came to the surface on this hill after thousands of years of erosion. The shells and fossils found embedded in the clays are a testimony to this.

A medium to deep garnet-purple color. It slowly emerges from the glass with aromas of plum, blueberry compote and chocolate-covered cherries, which lead to a magnificent scent of star anise, lilac , mocha and tar.
