Grand Maître is Marsovin's flagship wine, meticulously crafted from a premium blend of hand-picked Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc grapes. These grapes are sourced from Marsovin's privately owned estate, Għajn Riħana, nestled in the serene foothills between Bidnija and Wardija.
Each vintage of Grand Maître pays homage to a different Grand Master of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta, with the 2022 edition honoring Fra’ Manuel Pinto de Fonseca. The 2022 vintage is characterized by a deep ruby color, with concentrated aromas of black cherry and black plum, balanced by elements of sweet spice and cedar.
Marsovin is a distinguished Maltese wine producer with a rich heritage dating back to 1919. Founded by Chevalier Anthony Cassar, the company has evolved over generations, achieving renown among the Maltese people for the quality and variety of its range of wines, as well as for its pioneering success on both local and international fronts.
Marsovin owns over 199 tumuli of land, comprising five private estates across Malta and Gozo, dedicated to producing premium quality, single-estate wines. Their cellars, situated in a historic building dating back to the Order of St. John, house over 220 oak barrels used for aging premium red wines.
