Description: | 100 JS / 97 Ws / 96 Fs. Wow. Fabulous aromas of currants, rosemary, mint and orange peel. Perfect nose. Full body with perfectly integrated tannins. Its long and incredible with tangerine, toasted-oak, berry, terracotta and chocolate flavors. It lasts for minutes on the palate. This needs at least five years to soften but so spellbinding now. - James Suckling. Opulent and expressive, opening with coffee and vanilla aromas that lead to sweet plum and black cherry flavors. Leather, tobacco and iron notes contribute to the complexity. Lingers with a powerful, structured finish. Merlot. Best from 2017 through 2033. 360 cases imported. Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator. Dark ruby garnet, good color depth, violet reflections, delicate edge brightening. Sweet dark wild berry aromas, nuances of licorice, fine touch of precious wood, delicate vanilla and cardamom, inviting bouquet. Substantial, complex texture, taut and with firm, still present tannin, dark nougat, well-integrated acid structure, close-knit style, already sticks very well, subtle sweetness in the aftertaste, classic Masseto, which will gradually increase in the coming years. Peter Moser, Falstaff |
