Massetino 2020 is a full-bodied Italian Bordeaux blend and the second wine of the iconic Masseto, produced by Tenuta dell`Ornellaia in Bolgheri, Tuscany. Like Masseto, it is Merlot-based, but with the addition of a small amount of Cabernet Franc. "The Masseto 2020 Massetino is extremely generous and rich. This wine puts it all out there in full view with a bouquet that is stitched together with ripe blackberry and black cherry preserves, black stone or pencil shaving, sweet spice, cigar, smoke and tar. This was a warm and sunny vintage, and you feel the power of those sunbeams locked within the dark, opulent and concentrated fruit on display here. This is a special treat, and the 2020 edition offers a clear identity for Massetino." Wine Advocate, 2022
