Tasting Notes For Masseto Massetino 2023

The Masseto Massetino 2023 presents itself in the glass with a profound, nearly opaque ruby hue, offering a glimpse into its depth and intensity. Aromas unfurl in a symphony of ripe, dark fruits, including luscious black cherries, plums, and cassis, harmoniously interwoven with notes of dried herbs and hints of cedar. A delicate wisp of vanilla and a touch of crushed violets add layers of intrigue. Upon the palate, this wine reveals its opulence, delivering a full-bodied experience with a velvety texture.

Blackberry and blackcurrant flavors take center stage, accompanied by nuanced nuances of dark chocolate and a whisper of espresso bean, all wrapped in finely-grained tannins. The finish is strikingly long and balanced, offering a graceful transition from fruit to a subtle minerality, underscored by a touch of black pepper and a trace of graphite, leaving an indelible impression.

Critic Ratings

James Suckling Review – Rated 95:

A dark, super-intense, rich and complex wine. On the nose it shows restrained bramble fruit, vanilla, cloves, eucalyptus and leather. Lots of graphite on the palate, with firm, velvety tannins, chocolate flavors, refreshing acidity and a chalky, oaky finish. Drink or hold.
