Masso Antico is the essence of Salento in a glass. Fine wines born from withered grapes and crafted with passion, following ancient Apulian tradition. A unique sensory experience that celebrates the land.
In the heart of Salento, Masso Antico preserves the tradition of Apulian winemaking. The Alberello Pugliese, an ancient cultivation method, yields excellent quality grapes that are withered on the vine and refined in barrels. Passionate winemakers reinterpret history into eclectic wines, capable of expressing the colors and flavors of this generous land.
Goes perfectly with red meat and game cooked on the grill or in stews and with mature cheeses.
The grapes are grown in the vineyard of Tenute Masso Antico in accordance with organic farming methods and harvested by hand. After vinification, the wine is aged with a double passage in cocciopesto amphorae and in French and American oak barrels.The cocciopesto amphorae, a special mixture of crushed earthenware aggregates, fibres, stone fragments, sand, cement binder and water, guarantee to the wine a controlled micro-oxygenation and the result is a fully developed wine with peculiar and genuine flavours.
An intense ruby red colour, with scents of vanilla and chocolate, whisky and coffee. On the palate it is full-bodied and enveloping but at the same time harmonious.
