Maserati has once again proven that Italian luxury is a multi-sensory experience, not just about performance. The Trident has lifted the veil on the Grecale Tributo Il Bruciato, a new series of exquisite one-off creations born from the celebrated Fuoriserie personalization program.
This unique project is far more than a special edition SUV—it’s a rolling homage to Italy’s rich culture, specifically the art of fine winemaking.
An Intoxicating Collaboration
The Grecale Tributo Il Bruciato is the result of a compelling collaboration between Maserati and the renowned Tuscan winemaking family, Marchesi Antinori, celebrating their iconic “Il Bruciato” wine from the beautiful Bolgheri region. The vehicle is a tribute to the “authentic beauty of Bolgheri” and the harmonious character of a fine Italian blend.
Maserati perfectly encapsulates the spirit of the wine, equating the precision of automotive engineering with the artistry of viticulture. The result is a car that embodies elegance, taste, and the passion of Italian living.
‘Alchimia Scarlatta’: Paint as Performance Art
The most striking feature of the Grecale Tributo Il Bruciato is its mesmerizing exterior paint, aptly named Alchimia Scarlatta (Scarlet Alchemy).
This exclusive hue uses a sophisticated Chromaflair pigment to capture the intense red of wine swirling in a glass. Depending on the light and angle, the colour shifts dramatically from a deep burgundy base to shimmering notes of coppery gold and dark raspberry. It’s an optical spectacle that ensures the SUV draws attention on any road, mimicking the complex, shifting colours of a Grand Cru wine.
A Cabin Steeped in Tuscan Luxury
The theme of Italian craftsmanship and natural beauty continues inside the cabin:
- Lush Upholstery: The interior is finished in a rich combination of Tan and Dark Red Leather, featuring tone-on-tone stitching and the brand’s signature cannelloni (ribbed weave) on the seating.
- Signature Detailing: The headrests are subtly embellished with the iconic Maserati Trident logo in Dark Red, a constant reminder of the car’s provenance.
- Sensory Experience: Completing the high-end sensory journey is a 14-speaker Sonus faber premium audio system and a panoramic sunroof, designed to transform every drive into an all-encompassing experience of pleasure and harmony.
The Grecale Tributo Il Bruciato is a shining example of Maserati’s commitment to bespoke excellence through its Fuoriserie program. It’s not just a car; it’s a testament to the fact that when two Italian masters—one of the vine, the other of the road—collaborate, the result is nothing short of an unforgettable masterpiece.
This limited series of one-offs is a bold, beautiful nod to Italian know-how, offering a fortunate few the chance to truly drive the essence of Italian living.
