WINEMAKER NOTES
2007 Masseto Toscana IGT - Iconic Tuscan Merlot
The 2007 Masseto is an exceptional expression of one of Italy's most collectible wines. Produced entirely from Merlot on the Tuscan coast, Masseto takes its name from the distinctive masses of blue clay found within its celebrated vineyard. The 2007 vintage combines the richness and power associated with Masseto with remarkable elegance, freshness, and aromatic complexity, creating a compelling mature Super Tuscan for serious collectors.
Tasting Notes
The bouquet is expansive, revealing ripe blackberry, black cherry, cassis, blueberry, violet, and wild herbs alongside cocoa, espresso, spice, and subtle cedar. The palate is dense and richly textured, with concentrated dark fruit framed by polished, silky tannins. Balsamic notes, minerals, chocolate, and delicate spice add complexity, while balanced acidity carries the wine through an exceptionally long, clean finish.
Winemaking and Vineyard Details
Produced from 100% Merlot, the grapes were harvested by hand in four separate passes during September. Individual vineyard parcels were vinified separately in stainless steel tanks and oak vessels, followed by malolactic fermentation in 100% new oak barriques. The wine matured for 24 months in barrel, with blending after the first 12 months, followed by another year in barrel and 12 months of bottle aging before release.
Investment and Collectibility
Masseto has established an international following for its limited production, distinctive terroir, and consistent critical recognition. Mature vintages are particularly sought after, and the 2007 combines significant bottle age with an exceptional critical record and the proven longevity expected from this benchmark Tuscan Merlot.
Vintage Insights and Accolades
A warm, dry start to 2007 encouraged early development, while cooler August conditions slowed ripening. September brought sunshine, mild temperatures, and little rain, allowing gradual maturation and concentrated aromatic and phenolic development without overripeness.
