Massetino 2021

Den anden vin i Masseto er blevet aftappet separat siden 2017-årgangen for at hæve Massetos åbenlyse kvalitet endnu mere, så disse druer var allerede tidligere en del af Masseto. Omkring en tredjedel af vingårdens samlede høst af Merlot-druer går til Massetino. I modsætning til den rene Merlot i Masseto er der altid lidt Cabernet Sauvignon i blandingen, hvilket bidrager til vinens klirrende præcision og forførende saftighed. Vinen gæres parcelvis med vildgær i beton og modnes derefter i 12 måneder i 50 procent nye barriques, før den endelige blanding sammensættes. Aftapning finder sted efter yderligere tre måneder i betontanke. Dyb, lys rubinrød farve. Kompleks, krydret næse med en fænomenal balance mellem frugt og intens, stenet mineralitet. Macererede, attraktivt søde kirsebær, røde bær med duftende vanilje, tørret blond tobak, muskatnød, laurbærblad, nogle krydrede enebær og uendeligt komplekse aromaer af tørrede røde og blå blomster og varm stearinvoks. Fyldig, velduftende og ultraattraktiv. I munden har denne Massetino en strålende koncentration. De fine, pulveragtige tanniner glider elegant hen over tungen og efterlader en præcis friskhed, som man ikke ville have forventet af en varm årgang. Søde, saftige blåbær, syrlige kirsebær, surkirsebær, røde blommer og brombær. Mælkechokolade, et strejf af lakrids og timian bliver hængende i ganen. På grund af sin enorme kvalitet og tæthed kunne denne vin næsten omklassificeres til en førstevin. Fænomenalt imponerende ting og en fantastisk "lille Masseto"!

Wine Enthusiast om: Massetino

The Masseto 2021 and the Massetino 2020 bring to mind the Duomo of Florence and the dome of St. Peter's Basilica—both magnificent, imposing and equally beautiful. And if the Masseto is more architecturally sophisticated, the Massetino seems to do more with less. The Cabernet Franc works like an ice plunge after a hot sauna, tempering the almost terrifying intensity of the Merlot. A work of art, in any case. Gorgeous now, better in 2031.

Colin Hay om: Massetino

This is a super Tuscan in the sense that it’s super and it’s Tuscan – but it is no powerhouse. A wine of grace, elegance and finesse. Even at this nascent stage, it’s quite simply ethereal. The minerality is again very evident – crushed rock, manganese and iron oxides. And it’s fabulously pure-fruited with lovely plump crunchy raspberries. The Cabernet Franc brings further freshness and a lovely leafiness to the aromatics and a coolness to the palate. The tannins are graciously grippy, accentuating the leafy Cabernet notes that seem to build as the wine is slowly sculpted and chiselled in the mouth. Wow. This works so well. A truly fabulous wine and something of a revelation. 98/100

Suckling om: Massetino

Sweet berries with violet and rose aromas. Raspberries. So perfumed. Medium-bodied with very fine velvety tannins that run the length of the wine. Vibrant at the end. Second wine of Masseto. Best ever. Drink in 2027 but already a joy to taste. 96/100

Parker om: Massetino

The Masseto 2021 Massetino is mostly Merlot with a touch of Cabernet Franc for good measure. The wine (packaged in a heavy glass bottle) is very richly concentrated and layered. You see (and taste) the opulent texture of the wine as it slowly coats the glass. Quality fruit is matched by carefully selected oak, and the intensity of both builds on the palate. This vintage is poised for especially long cellar aging. This vintage of Massetino (2021) scores neck-in-neck with the current vintage (2020) of Masseto. 96/100

Jeb Dunnuck om: Massetino

A deep but transparent red color, the 2021 Massetino is harmonious and pure with aromas of polished leather, red apple, Amarena cherry, violets, and fresh rosemary. It’s penetrating on the palate, with outstanding freshness within this full-bodied red, offering ripe tannins, refreshing acidity, and very nice structure. It boasts a beautiful and clean mineral flourish on the very long and even finish, with a hint of warmth and cocoa on the back palate. It is fabulous already without anything sticking out and captures the warmth of the vintage with a graceful approach, while its liqueur-like fruit lasts for ages on the finish. A fantastic vintage for this wine, drink 2025-2045. 95+/100
