The Story

Born during the warm days of this intense vintage, the nose of Massetino 2022 already expresses all the warmth of the sun that it encountered as it ripened in the vineyard. Vibrancy and length on the palate encourages you to return to the glass to grasp the profound nuances of Massetino 2022, which closes with a freshness reminiscent of pleasant September nights. As for its firm tannins and pulpy red fruit flavors, they carry a beautiful fullness on the palate that never seems to subside.

98 Points - Wine Enthusiast

I've said that the Masseto feels like watching magic up close, and the Massetino is no less dexterous or impressive, nor does it deliver any less joy. It is perhaps like seeing the performer backstage after the show--hair down, tie loosened, smiling genuinely. A rare moment of intimacy with someone who is always in the spotlight.

97 Points - James Suckling

This is refined and fresh with hints of sandalwood to the beautiful blue fruits. It’s medium-bodied with creamy and polished tannins that frame the blue fruit and hints of crushed stone. Succulent and juicy with a crunchy personality. You want a sip right away. Second wine of the highest quality from Masseto. So drinkable and wonderful. Drink or hold.

95 Points - 
The Masseto 2022 Massetino is 90% Merlot with 10% Cabernet Franc in a well-played supporting role, especially in a hot vintage such as this. The two varieties make an impressive match to create a wine of density, richness and dark fruit flavors powered by a hearty 15% alcohol content. The philosophy behind Massetino is to allow for a more accessible side of the celebrated Masseto. The two wines share the same DNA in terms of fruit sourcing and winemaking. This edition is packed tight with black fruit, spice and toast. It offers an elegant tannic backbone and good freshness too.
93 Points - 
This is opulent, with a lush texture enveloping black cherry, blackberry and plum flavors. Flashes of tar, iron and wild herbs add detail as this red builds to the long finish. Balanced and fresh, with sweet, lingering oak spice notes. Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2026 through 2040. 160 cases imported.
