Description

Masseto 2003 

Toscana, IGT

Good levels, excellent appearance; Bons niveaux, excellente apparence

This was a scented part of the Masseto vineyard. Very scented. Absolutely no sense of the heat on the nose, but a spicy, "oriental" taste to it. Baked cherries and mocha. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

The property of a great bon viveur, who had an eye for the best, this collection starts with an impressive tranche of La Tâche, followed by other DRC cases, Château Latour and other top claret, Yquem, Masseto, Sassicaia, etc. The damp in the cellar has affected the labels, but it also means that the levels, almost without exception, are well into the neck, and the wine itself is bursting with health
