Winemaker’s Notes
The Masseto 2020 presents a captivating display in the glass, showcasing a deep, velvety ruby-red hue that hints at the wine’s richness and complexity. On the nose, an opulent bouquet unfolds, offering an abundance of dark fruits – ripe blackberries, plump cherries, and hints of luxurious black currants. Intertwined with these fruit-forward aromas are subtle notes of cedar, tobacco, and a touch of mocha, adding depth and intrigue. The palate is a revelation of sheer elegance and power.
Silky, yet robust tannins cradle a core of sumptuous fruit, revealing layers of dark chocolate, espresso, and a delicate trace of vanilla. The finish is nothing short of spectacular, with the flavors persisting gracefully and culminating in a symphony of fine spices and a lingering echo of ripe berries.
Critic Ratings
Intense aromas of ripe herbs, plums, green coffee beans, and hazelnuts. Turns to crushed berries and orange peel. Full-bodied with superb concentration and fine, velvety tannins that run the length of the wine. It’s big but agile and gorgeous. Merlot. What a wine! Best after 2030.
The 2020 Masseto now sees new DNA with a touch of Cabernet Franc added to this celebrated Merlot-based icon wine. This is a vintage of enormous richness and density, and everything about the wine is taken up a notch or two (including the bottle glass weight and the 15% alcohol content). But Axel Heinz and his team are well prepared for the hot vintages like 2020, and changes to farming and canopy management ensure even ripening. This wine is always hard to analyze in its youth. It needs many more years to soften and flesh out. Give it time.
Tasted from barrel, the 2020 Masseto is incredibly expressive out of the gate, with a sweet perfume of candied plum, boysenberry, crushed flowers, mocha, sweet earth, and fresh sage. The palate is full-bodied and decadent, with a velvety texture and notes of black plum, fresh leather, and scorched mineral earth. It delivers great finesse and polish that features opulence without having weight. I look forward to tasting this next year from bottle.
