Description

A distinctive rosé crafted from 80% Malvasia Nera and 20% Merlot grapes. On the nose, it reveals aromas of wild strawberries and red berries, complemented by floral notes of violet and hibiscus. Subtle hints of white pepper and Mediterranean herbs add complexity. The palate is fresh and sapid, with a rustic structure that reflects the character of the Maremma region. Aged for 18 months in oak and chestnut barrels, followed by six months in the bottle, this wine offers a harmonious balance between its fruity and spicy elements, making it both approachable and capable of further evolution.

Massa Vecchia

Founded in 1985 by Fabrizio Niccolaini, the estate is now managed by Francesca Sfondrini, who continues the tradition of crafting wines with minimal intervention and a deep respect for nature.
The estate spans about 6 hectares, nestled near the medieval town of Massa Marittima, in the Maremma region. The vineyards are planted with a diverse mix of grape varieties, including Sangiovese, Vermentino, Malvasia Nera, and Alicante, as well as lesser-known local varietals. The soils, rich in minerals and influenced by the nearby Tyrrhenian Sea, contribute to the distinctive character and minerality found in Massa Vecchia’s wines.

Tuscany

Tuscany, one of Italy's most renowned wine regions, is celebrated for its exceptional and diverse wines. Known for its picturesque landscapes and ideal climate, it benefits from a range of terroirs, from rolling hills to coastal areas. The area is particularly famous for its red wines, notably Chianti, made primarily from Sangiovese grapes, which offer bright acidity, cherry flavours, and earthy undertones. It also produces prestigious wines such as Brunello di Montalcino, a full-bodied red with complex flavours and excellent ageing potential, and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. For whites, Vernaccia di San Gimignano is noted for its crisp, refreshing character. Tuscany blends traditional winemaking with innovative techniques, offering a rich and varied wine experience.
