Tenuta Masseto Massetino 2020
A monumental red for charisma, finesse, and stylistic rigor. The olfactory profile alternates between noble black fruits and mineral and spicy notes of extreme refinement. On the palate, it is dense, savory, and characterized by a masterful balance between the power of Merlot and the verticality of the sip. A stylish example that represents the absolute pinnacle of Bolgheri.

Tenuta Masseto Massetino 2020
The 2020 "Massetino" from Tenuta Masseto is a monumental work, the "second wine" that possesses the charisma and stature of a first. Born from a rigorous selection of the parcels that make up the Masseto mosaic, this predominantly Merlot blend with a small portion of Cabernet Franc embodies the power and refinement of the Bolgheri terroir. The 2020 vintage has delivered perfect phenolic ripeness, resulting in a sumptuous and rarefied mouthful. On the nose, it is a concert of rare elegance: clear notes of wild blackberry, ripe plum, and violet merge with deep hints of dark chocolate, licorice, Mediterranean herbs, and a mineral trace reminiscent of graphite and wet earth. On the palate, it is powerful and architectural; the entry is broad, dominated by noble and polished tannins, with an aristocratic balsamic freshness that extends the sip toward a savory, infinite, and vibrant finish.
