Overview

A deep ruby/magenta hue, the 2020 Masseto is a highly compelling wine, offering seductive and seamless aromas of dark chocolate, Marasca cherry liqueur, crushed stones, lavender, sage oil, and vanilla bean. Full-bodied, with fantastic concentration and purity and even more depth and richness, it has plush tannins and fresh acidity that continues to weave through the wine, with notes of espresso crema and salted caramel that accent the palate and an incredibly long and even finish. Comparing it to the 2013, which was tasted alongside, this has more refinement in its texture and is one of the truly spectacular wines from this vintage. Drink 2028-2050.

Tasted from barrel, the 2020 Masseto is beautifully full and generous with concentrated black fruit, rich texture and soft tannins. There are distant hints of pencil shaving and crushed peppercorn that come from the very small (from 6% to 7%) part of Cabernet Franc that is blended into this Merlot from blue clay soils. We will also see a small part of Cabernet Franc in the 2021 vintage. The oak management is superb. Masseto finishes in medium-toast oak from various coopers, mostly Taransaud (T5) and Seguin-Moreau (Icône) with a tiny percentage of Nadalié. The 2020 promises an exuberant and immediate approach next to the very precise, focused and long-term 2019. It also has that 360-degree abundance that we saw in the unforgettable 2015 vintage.
