TENUTA DELL'ORNELLAIA MASSETO TOSCANA IGT 2017 (OWC)

Tuscany.

Those distinctive notes of macchia mediterranea (wild bush) that I always associate with Masseto are less present in this vintage. You feel the oak tannins on the finish with toast and vanilla that will certainly shed as the wine ages. In fact, I went back to taste the wine 12 hours later, and they had already softened considerably. May 2020 Drink to 2050 WA 97
