Falstaff October 2023

94 Rich, deep dark ruby with a fine violet shimmer. Dark and dense nose, showing appealing notes of cedar wood, blackberries, and dark plums. Firm and full-bodied on the palate, showing pronounced notes of tobacco, blackberry, and brown butter, grippy, tannic, still quite rough on the finish.

Parker May 2023

96 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.
