| Community Tasting Notes (average 95.4 pts. and median of 95 pts. in 19 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | Tasted by Collector1855 on 12/13/2023 & rated 94 points: Salon Ficofi Paris walkabout tasting and dinner, no detailed tasting notes. Also here a wine from the old days Parker playbook. Rich, sweet, extracted, polished palate. Aromatically not much going on beyond blue fruit. (1140 views) | | Tasted by sdsull on 7/5/2023 & rated 96 points: This wine popped with food from Bosa in Bend, OR. For me, Masseto can be hit or miss. It is such a food wine. You have to enjoy it with the right food, the right people. Tonight was such a night and the 2012 did not disappoint. (956 views) | | Tasted by MC2 Wines on 11/5/2022: Charleston VII; 11/2/2022-11/6/2022 (Charleston, SC (various locations)): A complete and total baby wine. Lots of bright red fruits but still very primary. Interested to try an older one of these from a good year. Thus far I haven't had my 'Masseto moment'. (2046 views) | | Tasted by S1 on 11/5/2022: Charleston Offlineorama VII; 11/2/2022-11/6/2022 (Various locations): Super young, but hinting at greatness. Plummy Merlot, but totally Italian.

Very nice, see '10 notes as well. Masseto dinner at Rocco Borgese 1997-2015 (2239 views) | | Tasted by peterag on 7/7/2020 & rated 95 points: Excellent wine, though this bottle seemed to be mature already: the color, sediment etc - but maybe it was the result of storage before it got to me; the cork was excellent though (3397 views) | | Tasted by Alex G. on 6/22/2019: Shockingly accessible, pop and pour from magnum. Tannins totally soft, this is all chocolate and cherries. Delicious now, but surely more simple than it will be with maturity. (3471 views) | | Tasted by axisx on 3/27/2019 & rated 93 points: very ripe. the less interesting one in a vertical. but it gets better in the glass. (3449 views) | | Tasted by rashcar on 1/30/2019 & rated 97 points: What a wine! Young but complex and balanced. Old world with earthiness and dark ripe Berries. A great experience. (3712 views) | | Tasted by DonDon on 7/26/2018: Sold by Cult Wines at £1,200 for the 3 - a profit of 17% after Management Fee - not brilliant for a near 3 year hold but can re-invest full sum with no man fee now (3453 views) | | Tasted by RussK on 10/19/2015: Russk Folio Tasting at Cipriani. To young and tight to judge. (7354 views) |
