TASTING NOTES

Maremma Toscana Messiio Igt Toscana is a dry red wine, produced by Tenuta Fertuna. Tenuta Fertuna, founded in 1997, is located in the heart of Maremma Toscana, in southern Tuscany. The influence of the sea breezes coming from the nearby coasts, the soils particularly rich in clay and limestone, the Mediterranean climate, make this land dotted with hills incredibly suitable for viticulture. The characteristic name attributed to this winery refers to the fertility of the earth and the good fortune of the men who cultivate it. Centuries ago the Etruscans had chosen Tuscany as the place to create their flourishing civilization, dedicating themselves to agriculture. In this winemaking company, Tenuta Fertuna has decided to cultivate mainly international vines, taking as models the great red wines with a Bordeaux blend. Thus Maremma Toscana Messiio was created, a wine produced from a single variety, 100% Merlot. In the case of this wine as well, the name has a specific origin: derived from tradition, it means “the one who will come”. In fact, it represents the winery’s excellent wine and is produced exclusively in the best vintages. This wine is produced with meticulous care and attention during all the winemaking processes: starting from the vineyard where a careful selection of the bunches is carried out, to the alcoholic fermentation which is partially carried out in stainless steel tanks and subsequently in French oak barrels from Allier. It then matures in new and second-use barriques for 12 months, followed by bottle ageing for a further 6 months. Maremma Toscana Messiio is a very intense garnet red colour in the glass. On the nose, it reveals intense notes of berries, accompanied by nuances of liquorice, tobacco and vanilla. In the mouth, it is warm and enveloping, while maintaining good freshness and a well-integrated tannic texture. Notes of tobacco and cocoa return to the palate, with a long finish. Intended for important occasions, it pairs well with first courses with meat sauces or long-cooked meat main courses. Read more Read less
