Jeroboum Masseto 2022 Toscana IGT 3 lt.

Rooted in its unique soil, Masseto reflects in its grapes the concentration of small red fruits that are immediately recognizable upon the nose. A bright, vibrant red color, typical of its identity, waiting to be released on a rich and enveloping palate. Naturally powerful, it awaits expression with the final months of bottle aging, thus finding the perfect balance of strength and elegance, as always in its style.

The grapes were hand-picked into 15-kg crates. After destemming and light pressing, the berries were transferred to cement vats by gravity. Each individual vineyard parcel was vinified separately. Fermentation occurred spontaneously with indigenous yeasts at temperatures around 25-28°C, with two or three
Daily pumping over and delestages were performed where necessary. Maceration was extended from 21 to 28 days, adapting to the aromatic and extraction profiles of each individual lot. Malolactic fermentation took place in barriques, 100% new oak, keeping the parcels separate for the first 12 months of aging.
The wines were then blended and returned to barriques for another year, reaching a total of 24 months of wood aging. After bottling, the 2022 Masseto was left to age for another 12 months in the bottle before being released.
