Description

Italy / Tuscany

Tenuta dell' Ornellaia, one of the world's most famous wineries, truly flourished under the management of the Frescobaldi family. For 700 years, the family has strived to develop and preserve the diversity of the Tuscan terroir. The Frescobaldis own some of the region's largest vineyards and value the identity and autonomy of each one. The grapes from the different vineyards are fermented separately, giving the wine its unique character. Sustainability is an essential part of their winemaking philosophy. Masseto, like Ornellaia, is vinified by winemaker Axel Heinz. It is considered Italy's answer to Pétrus.

Origin in Focus

Tuscany

Tuscany is one of Italy’s defining wine regions, known for Sangiovese and iconic appellations such as Chianti Classico, Brunello di Montalcino and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. The Mediterranean climate with sea breezes and diverse soils produces elegant, fresh wines with structure. On the coast, ‘Super Tuscans’ are also made from Cabernet, Merlot and other varieties. In addition to red wines, the region offers characterful whites such as Vernaccia di San Gimignano and Vermentino, as well as the traditional dessert wine Vin Santo. The result: tradition meets innovation – with clear terroir expression and great drinking pleasure.
