Questo vino

Vineyard and terroir

The vineyards are planted on medium-textured clay soils over an alluvial base with fragments of limestone. Yields are limited to 800 g of grapes per vine.

Vinification

The fruit is harvested in the first half of September and macerated for approximately 20 days.

Ageing

The wine matures for 14 months, initially in standard oak barrels, 75% new, and subsequently in small used barrels.

Tasting profile

The 2010 vintage combines pronounced intensity with charm and finesse. It has an elegant, well-defined structure and a distinctive aroma reflecting the character of Maremma.

Label / history

Messorio has been produced since 1994 and is made in strictly limited quantities.
