2008 Masseto – Tuscany’s Cult Merlot

The 2008 Masseto is a pinnacle of Tuscan winemaking, crafted exclusively from Merlot grown on the prestigious clay-rich soils of the Masseto vineyard. As one of Italy’s most coveted and collectible wines, Masseto defines elegance, depth, and power within the Tuscany landscape.

Tasting Notes

Opening with seductive aromas of blackberry, plum, and graphite, the wine reveals layers of espresso, dark chocolate, and violets. The palate is richly textured yet remarkably poised, with notes of ripe black fruits, minerality, and a refined, velvety finish supported by polished tannins.

Winemaking & Vineyard Details

Produced entirely from hand-harvested Merlot grapes, the 2008 vintage underwent fermentation in temperature-controlled oak vats, followed by aging in **100% new French oak barrels** for approximately **24 months**. Masseto’s distinctive terroir, a rare vein of compact blue clay, imparts power and structure while maintaining vibrancy and finesse.

Investment & Collectibility

The 2008 Masseto continues the estate’s legacy of producing highly sought-after wines that command top auction prices worldwide. Its limited production, critical acclaim, and exceptional aging potential make it a crown jewel for collectors. Perfect for your collection.

Vintage Specifics & Accolades

The **2008 vintage** in Tuscany was defined by a cooler, balanced growing season, producing wines with finesse, tension, and long-term aging capabilities.

The 2008 Masseto is a powerhouse, and unquestionably one of the greatest expression of pure Merlot out there. Incredibly deep, rich notes of black fruits, chocolate, earth, and licorice all emerge from this majestic yet classic, regal, masculine wine. It’s full-bodied and beautifully balanced on the palate and has fabulous purity of fruit, polished tannins, and a huge finish. It’s still a baby but wow, what a wine.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate

(RATING 97+) The 2008 Masseto is another huge wine. It boasts tons of energy in a tense, inward style I can only describe as implosive, as if the wine is holding back all of its energy. A deep core of black fruit, grilled herbs, licorice and new leather emerges from time to time, but the tannins are still imposing. There is no shortage of pedigree. I fully expect the 2008 to develop into one of the great Massetos. Needless to say, it will be interesting to taste the 2008 in vertical tastings in the future. Anticipated maturity: 2018-2033.

Vinous

(RATING 97+)The 2008 Masseto has never been an easy wine. When it was first released, it was so hard and unyielding. Time has helped the 2008 soften a bit. Even so, it remains a wine of contrasts, of a very obvious push and pull that seems to mirror a growing season marked by alternating periods of warm weather and far cooler conditions. Graphite, smoke, tar and licorice, along with broad tannins, give the 2008 a real feeling of masculine power, qualities that are accentuated in the magnum format.
