Siblings Maria Iris and Claudio Tipa, who have always shared a passion for nature and excellent wines, realised their dream by creating a similar French 'Domaine' in Tuscany. Today's Colle Massari comprises two estates: Castello di ColleMassari purchased in 1999, and Grattamacco, taken over in 2002 and subsequently purchased in 2007.
The Castello Colle Massari estate was established in 1998 and is included in the Montecucco DOCG in the Alta Maremma, between the Brunello di Montalcino DOCG and the Morellino di Scansano DOCG, and enjoys ideal conditions for the production of Sangiovese.
The first vintage produced was in 2000.
The Castello Colle Massari estate is located on the slopes of Mount Amiata. It faces the Tyrrhenian coast at an altitude of 320 metres above sea level, enjoying a microclimate favoured by strong winds and large temperature ranges.
The farm covers an area of approximately 350 hectares, of which 74 hectares of vineyards, 22 hectares of olive groves, 100 hectares of arable land and the remainder of woods. In addition, the estate is surrounded by state-owned woods for about 1,200 hectares.
Fermentation occurs for the most important wines in 10-quintal truncated conical vats with manual punching-down and for the other wines in thermostatically controlled steel vats. Then, depending on the type of wine, ageing takes place for 12-18 months in 225-litre barriques and 500-litre French oak tonneaux and 40 hl Slavonian oak vats.
Bottle ageing is always longer than 6 months for all red wines. This is because the vertical structure of the cellar, developed on four levels, allows the grapes and must to be moved without the aid of pumps. Read more
