Masseto Toskana IGT, Tenuta dell' Ornellaia, 2017

Significantly fruit-driven and bold in character, the 2017 Masseto shows the estate's capacity to produce wines of dense body and long finish even in warmer, more assertive years. The fruit is ripe and expressive, the tannins substantial, the finish sustained and fragrant. Critics awarded 96 points. A wine of generous character that will reward patience while offering more immediate pleasure than some other vintages in this series, the 2017 demonstrates the singular versatility of Masseto across the range of conditions the Bolgheri hillside presents.
