2013 Masseto – Tuscany’s Iconic Merlot

The 2013 Masseto is a benchmark vintage from Italy’s most celebrated Merlot, produced on the Bolgheri coast. Often described as the “Pétrus of Tuscany,” Masseto demonstrates the perfect balance of ripeness, depth, and elegance that has cemented its place among the world’s greatest wines. This vintage reflects the estate’s meticulous craftsmanship and unique terroir, reinforcing Masseto’s status as one of the most collectible Super Tuscan wines.

Tasting Notes

The 2013 opens with intense aromas of dark plum, black cherry, and violets, enriched by layers of graphite, espresso, and subtle truffle. On the palate, the wine is powerful yet graceful, with velvety tannins, polished acidity, and a long finish driven by mineral and spice notes. The complexity and harmony of this vintage make it one of the most profound expressions of Masseto in the past decade.

Winemaking & Vineyard Details

Masseto is crafted exclusively from **Merlot** planted on the estate’s iconic blue clay soils, which lend structure, depth, and minerality to the wine. Fermented in small oak vats and aged for **24 months in 100% new French oak barrels**, followed by an additional year in bottle, the 2013 is a precise reflection of Bolgheri’s coastal terroir and the estate’s uncompromising standards.

Investment & Collectibility

The 2013 Masseto is one of the most highly regarded vintages of the modern era, with consistent praise from critics and strong secondary market performance. With its rarity, reputation, and longevity, this wine remains a cornerstone for collectors of fine Italian wines. Perfect for your collection.

Vintage Specifics & Accolades

The 2013 vintage in Tuscany was cooler and later than average, producing wines with vibrant freshness, precision, and remarkable aromatic intensity. Masseto excelled under these conditions, creating a wine that combines concentration with balance and long-term aging potential.

The 2013 Masseto is really starting to show off, opening in the glass to aromas of framboise, crushed stones, cypress, fresh leather, and minty lift. Ripe but chiseled, it’s full-bodied, with very well-defined, ripe tannins. Notes of salty dark earth drive the wine forward, while more savory and earthy notes of pu-ehr tea last long after the wine is gone. It’s a wine that will be sturdy in the long run, and its structure is not going anywhere. For my personal taste, the 2020 has a slight edge over this, but it’s a remarkable wine. Drink 2025-2050.

The 2013 Masseto paints a glorious picture of Tuscany. It captures an inspired moment in time and walks an impressive tightrope between power and elegance. In my preview tasting last year, I noticed the firm textural richness of the 2013 vintage and the crystalline sharpness of its aromas. Thanks to 12 additional months of bottle aging, that impression is evermore constant and concrete. The focus is there, yet the wine has also fleshed out and put on more velvety definition especially in terms of mouthfeel. It wears its pedigree with pride, but most importantly it offers the balance and integration to promise a long and healthy aging future. The 2013 vintage follows closely on the heels of the impeccable 2006 and 2010 vintages in terms of cellaring potential. This is definitely a bottle that should interest collectors.

The 2013 Masseto is a wine of real vibrancy, clarity and precision. In some moments, the 2013 shows a bit of its voluptuous fruit, but it is rich, structured and clearly in need of time. Like all Massetos from cooler years, the 2013 is a long-distance runner. Give it time. A warm, dry summer helped the vineyards catch up after a late and irregular flowering. Cool nighttime temperatures provided the diurnal shifts at the end of the season that are so critical for the development of aromatics. Reviewed by Antonio Galloni, Issue date: January, 2018.
