Description
The relatively cool climate of 2010 yielded a wine that is remarkably elegant and with superb, complex aromatics. The colour is dense and near-opaque, while the nose boasts intense, deep fruit accompanied by delicate spice notes and a vein of crisp minerality. If on the palate it presents itself somewhat less opulent than in warmer vintages, it does, however, display an impressively dense suite of firm tannins that seem to linger forever. The equally lengthy finish conveys elegant notes of toast and chocolate. A Masseto full of elegance and finesse, but with its customary magnificence.
