The 1992 Masseto is a revelation. I am amazed by the sheer integrity and purity of the fruit in this explosive Masseto. The wine turns a bit more delicate in the glass, with elements of brightness that balance some of the more extroverted qualities. I especially admire the dramatic, sweeping finish. Simply put, this is a stunning wine. Bolgheri escaped the big rains that compromised the harvest throughout the rest of Tuscany.
A ripe, seductive, opulent texture with tobacco, black olives, dried herbs to give it some complexity.
