Description

2021 Masseto, Tuscany, ItalyMasseto is located in Tuscanys coastal Maremma region, within the famed Tenuta dellOrnellaia estate, and produces some of the most revered wines in all of Italy. Masseto doesnt rely on Sangiovese, like so many other famous wines from the area: it exclusively focuses on Merlot. Production is incredibly precise, which translates through to wonderfully polished, premium wines. Rich and elaborate, the 2021 vintage has everything there is to love about

Monica Larner - 28/04/2017

led by the redoubtable Sylvie Poillot

but we were completely bowled over by the brilliance of the white wines here this year

closed wine packed with cassis

with a notable citrus crunch

The seduction continues on the palate with sweet fleshy Merlot fruit coated by fine tannins and toasty spice notes from the oak

with the translucent crushed raspberry and peach skin fruit core

with a gentle smile

Dark cherry and blackberry segue to spice

towards Chassagne

There is more savoury complexity of earth and forest floor on the palate and whilst the length is open and fresh the tannins gently nip in the finish so as not to reveal everything too early

exclusively selected and bottled for Berry Bros
