The red wine Masseto IGT, vintage 1996 from the winery Masseto has been rated in 2017 by Peter Moser with 94 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape variety Merlot from the region Tuscany in Italy.
Strong ruby, purple reflections, broad and bright rim. Initially the nose is dominated by a vivid touch of Brettanomyces, smoky nuances, some liquorice, candied violets and a hint of tobacco. Juicy, pronounced fruit, showing good complexity and vivid tannins, chocolaty finish, long persistency, a wine marked by an individualistic, somewhat rustic style, nevertheless great to drink now and endowed with certain ageing potential.
