Masseto
The Tenuta dell'Ornellaia Masseto 2000 is one of the absolute legends among Italian Red Wines and represents the terroir of Tuscany in its purest, most concentrated form. With this single-varietal Merlot from the small single vineyard Masseto, the Tenuta dell'Ornellaia winery has made wine history – the 2000 Vintage is considered one of the most significant ever.
Vinification is carried out with uncompromising precision: hand-harvesting from the clay soils of the Masseto parcel, temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks, and subsequent aging in new French oak barrels for approximately 24 months. The result is a wine of monumental structure that simultaneously exudes pure elegance and refinement. The Tenuta dell'Ornellaia Masseto 2000 combines power with exceptional finesse.
On the nose, a captivating bouquet of ripe dark berries, cassis, and blackberries unfolds, accompanied by notes of tobacco, cedar, dark chocolate, and a hint of truffle. The palate reveals impressive concentration with velvety, ripe tannins perfectly integrated into the dense fruit structure. Layers of black cherries, plums, and spicy nuances alternate. The finish is remarkably long, almost endless, with an elegant minerality and subtle toasty notes that linger for minutes.
At Wine In Time, you can conveniently order this exceptional wine online and have it delivered to Vienna or anywhere in Austria. Discover other top Wines in our Red Wine selection.
Serve the Masseto 2000 at 16–18 °C, ideally decanted to fully develop its complexity. It pairs beautifully with robust dishes such as beef, venison, braised game stew, or fine hard cheeses. A wine for truly special occasions.
