Masseto 2000

Bolgheri, Tuscany, ItalySpicy, creme brulee, clove, vanilla, plum jam and coffee aromas mixed with saddle leather, tobacco and gamey notes. Rich, unctuous and elegant with very peppery, spicy, clove, coffee, tobacco and black cherry jam flavours and a licorice, plum, minty, vanilla finish. A bit hot and oaky at this stage, needs several years to integrate fully. Ripe stuff. Prices are for the 1999 vintage.Tasted: 21 May 2003Tasted by: Stuart TobePrices:
