Most famous Supertuscan wine. Made exclusively from merlot. Only 35000 bottles produced a year. The consistently high scores the Masseto garners every year guarantees that the wine is hardly available in the market.

"Wow. Fabulous aromas of currants, rosemary, mint and orange peel. Perfect nose. Full body with perfectly integrated tannins. It's long and incredible with tangerine, toasted-oak, berry, terracotta and chocolate flavors. It lasts for minutes on the palate. This needs at least five years to soften but so spellbinding now." - James Suckling (100)

"Opulent and expressive, opening with coffee and vanilla aromas that lead to sweet plum and black cherry flavors. Leather, tobacco and iron notes contribute to the complexity. Lingers with a powerful, structured finish. Merlot. Best from 2017 through 2033." - Wine Spectator (97)

This is a 1500ml format in a OWC with security band.
