Having mastered winemaking in Verona, Masi looked oversees and began the Masi Tupungato winemaking project in Argentina. Here they look to combine "Venetian Soul" with "Argentinean Terroir". Below are reviews of the full range of wines from this project, reviewed as part of The Independent Wine Review's focus on Argentina this month:

A full review of this excellent and traditional Piedmontese wine by this esteemed producer. Despite only having been founded 60 years ago, this producer has already built an enviable reputation for quality, this is just one of many wines to show why.
Founded in 1956 and well known around the world, the producer of this wine is a model family business. Generations and siblings collaborate to produce stunning wines. This is one of those wines.
This winemaker is better known for it's Barolo, however this wine is the best of those reviewed this year. Long, fragrant and nuanced, few better wines leave this part of Piedmont each year.
