Masi Tupungato is one of the most innovative winemaking ventures in recent years, blending traditional Italian winemaking techniques with the unique terroir of Argentina. Located in the Tupungato Valley in Mendoza, Argentina, at the foot of the majestic Tupungato volcano, this vineyard project is where Masi Winery brings centuries of Venetian winemaking expertise to South American soil.
At the heart of this project is the celebrated Appassimento method, a traditional Venetian technique where grapes are carefully dried over the winter to concentrate their flavours, aromas, and complexity. Masi has perfected this process over generations in Italy and now applies it with stunning success in Argentina’s rich, high-altitude vineyards.
The Masi Tupungato estate produces a distinctive range of organic Argentine wines with Italian influence, including:
• Corbec: A bold red wine made from a unique blend of Corvina and Malbec grapes.
• Passo Doble: A vibrant red wine combining Argentine passion with Italian finesse.
• Passo Blanco: A refreshing white wine with rich floral and tropical notes.
Each wine is crafted using the appassimento winemaking process and benefits from certified organic cultivation, reflecting Masi’s commitment to sustainable and environmentally responsible viticulture.
Argentine Terroir Meets Italian Craftsmanship
The philosophy of Masi Tupungato is best expressed as “Argentinean Nature, Venetian Style.” This phrase captures the essence of wines that are both rooted in the rich soil of Mendoza and refined by centuries-old Italian techniques.
