The "Masseto" comes from a single vineyard: only six hectares, where passion and dedication come together with talent and skill, to give life to the highest excellence, the result of an obsession for every little detail , and daughter of a terroir so suited to the cultivation of vines. Then the Tenuta dell'Ornellaia, the flagship of what is the Bordeaux blend par excellence, the undisputed queen of the Bolgheri area. Two brands, now famous all over the world: two absolute "musts", conceived on parallel but currently very distinct roads, which have been traveling independently for years now, towards a future that looks more than rosy. A rosy future, but at the same time a past that for about two decades has traveled inextricably on the same track. It was in fact in 1981 that the Marquis Lodovico Antinori, cousin of Piero Antinori, founded the Ornellaia Estate, in the heart of the Bolgheri area. Thus, with the first harvest of 1985, what would become an icon among the SuperTuscans was born: the Ornellaia, put on the market three years later, in 1988. After the inauguration of the cellar, the world-famous enologist - Michel Rolland - began to take care of the technical part of the cellar. In the 90s the other two labels, "Le Volte" and "Le Serre Nuove", were born. At the beginning of 2000, Robert Mondavi, the great Californian producer, acquired the estate, transferring 50% to Marchesi de' Frescobaldi, which would purchase the other 50% only three years later. The end of the 2000s also saw the birth of the "Poggio alle Gazze" label and the highly selected late harvest wine "Ornus", from pure petit manseng. A legendary cellar, which wrote the history of Bolgheri. If we return to Tenuta Masseto, however, 2019 is to be recorded as a memorable year, with April 12 to be marked on the agenda as the date of inauguration of the new cellar, which was followed by the birth of the "Massetino", "second vin" of the Estate which in the autumn of the same year made its official entry into the international oenological Olympus.
