出身義大利最著名的葡萄酒世家Lodovico Antinori在見識到表兄Sassicaia，以及哥哥Solaia的成功之後，啓發了他也開創一家酒莊的夢想，於是在Bolgheri創立了也是生產「超級托斯卡尼紅酒」的
其葡萄園開始種植於1985年。挾著Bolgheri最厲害的三劍客之一。和酒莊同名的Cabernet Sauvignon、Cabernet Franc 和4個波爾多品種釀造，是標準的超級托斯卡尼紅酒；近年來，本酒莊還聘請到世界聞名的釀酒顧問Wine Spectator年度百大，甚至2001年勇奪年度百大第一名！
Masseto 從2014年開始已經正式分家出去成為獨立酒莊，興建了Masseto 自己的酒莊和酒窖。而Tenuta dell'Ornellaia則更名簡化稱為Ornellaia。

Masseto has pulled off back-to-back home runs. This is the first time that an Italian wine has earned 100 points in successive vintages. The 2016 Masseto is a thunderstorm of emotions, but it manages to keep them under perfect control. Like the 2015 Masseto before it, this vintage is a seamless wine of the highest pedigree. It represents an encore performance, continuing the string of successes that is bringing Italy to the forefront of the wine world. The first thing you'll notice is the thickness and concentration of the fruit that makes an immediate impact on all the senses, in terms of appearance, aroma and mouthfeel. There is no overstating the sheer power and richness of this iconic vintage of Italy's groundbreaking Merlot. Despite that considerable mass, this Masseto remains delicate and graceful. You gain better perspective as the wine opens in the glass and reveals deeper layers that were not immediately apparent on first nose: dark fruit, spice, sweet tobacco and black cherry. There is great tightness and laser focus to the fruit. I tasted the 2016 and 2015 vintages together for comparison when I scored this wine, and then I tasted this 2016 edition alone about a month later to confirm my impressions. These vintages are identical twins, two perfect wines.
