Note di degustazione
The 2022 Massetino is Merlot with 10% Cabernet Franc, and the color is a deep purple/magenta with rich extract in the glass. It offers deep notes of dark stones, a very unique perfume of lavender oils, rosemary, cedar, leather, and delicate toasty incense lifting from the glass. Plush and full-bodied, it’s more approachable and round on the palate, with notes of mocha, velvety plush tannins, even acidity, and a good deal of length. Drink 2026-2040.

The Masseto 2022 Massetino is 90% Merlot with 10% Cabernet Franc in a well-played supporting role, especially in a hot vintage such as this. The two varieties make an impressive match to create a wine of density, richness and dark fruit flavors powered by a hearty 15% alcohol content. The philosophy behind Massetino is to allow for a more accessible side of the celebrated Masseto. The two wines share the same DNA in terms of fruit sourcing and winemaking. This edition is packed tight with black fruit, spice and toast. It offers an elegant tannic backbone and good freshness too.
Naturally lower vigour vines because of the clay soils, so lower yield, less density in the plantation. Plush, lush flavours, purity of blueberry and cassis fruits, chalky tannins, rose petals, spherical, cocoa bean, dark chocolate, liquorice, strong character. 30% new oak. 94.
The 2022 Massetino is plump, juicy and irrepressibly gorgeous. Succulent dark-toned fruit, new leather and mocha build nicely as this racy, open-knit second wine from Masseto shows off its undeniable charm. This is a relatively understated, delicate edition of Massetino.
