Falstaff - 99

The fruit of a particularly late harvest, Masseto displays great aromatic maturity, with fruit and spice joining the usual balsamic and mentholated accents. Ample, rich, and full on the palate, its once potent tannins have mellowed to leave a sense of great vivacity and freshness to counterbalance the richness.


The wine is a joy to drink right now but can certainly further improve with more bottle age.
