Description

Masseto 1997

Toscana, IGT

Levels into the neck


Glorious rich, opulent nose of leather, vanillin and cinnamon. Then a rich taste that completely envelops. This just reaches every corner. Stunning depth and sweetness. Utterly seductive and, as usual, much thicker in texture than Ornellaia, which has the finesse. In 2010, lovely and soft, rich and silky, with a marinated cherries heart to it. Perfect drinking now. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
