Merchant's description
The 2018 Masseto is intensly aromatic with perfumed violets, flowers coated with blackberries, cherries and dried Mediterranean herbs. Inky purple in colour, this is followed by notes of cedar, smoke, espresso and vanilla. The tannins are structured but incredibly well balanced for such a young wine.
