Masseto - Toscana IGT 2015

Masseto, un lieu magique

Sur la côte toscane italienne, surplombant la mer Tyrrhénienne près du petit village de Bolgheri, se trouve une colline magique. Le vin produit ici n'était pas censé exister : Masseto. L'homme, le sol et le vignoble : voilà les trois éléments à l'origine de sa réussite.

Masseto est le nom d'un vin, d'un vignoble et d'un domaine unique. Le potentiel de la pente sur laquelle se trouve le vignoble, homonyme de Masseto a été pressenti au début des années 1980, lorsque les premières vignes ont été plantées, contre toute attente, contre les recommendations et la tradition locale. L'intuition a porté ses fruits. Le sol fait d'argile bleue, la fraîcheur de la brise côtière et l'excellente réfraction de la lumière garantie par la mer Méditerranée contribuent à l'intriguant mélange de puissance, d'élégance et de complexité qui rendent ce vin unique. Depuis sa création, Masseto a acquis une renommée

Ruby. Looks quite mature, especially at the rim. More muted nose than the Solaia 2015. Quite rich and dusty but without much refreshment value. Very marked dry tannins on the end – dry growing season? A bit of heat runs right throught this. Lacks the purity of the Solaia tasted immediately beforehand. A tad old school ? Drink 2019-2028

The release of this wine comes at a very happy time for the Masseto brand. The stunning 2015 Masseto is hitting the market just as the final touches are being made to the new Masseto winery. I'm told that Masseto might one day see other wines made under that same roof, so we can't exclude a future enlargement of the Masseto portfolio. The Masseto vineyard now covers seven hectares (divided into three plots), and the vines range from 30 to 40 years old. The wine is absolutely teeming with sensorial spirit that is transmitted through the bounty of the bouquet and the solid tannins of the mouthfeel. Nothing about the wine goes unnoticed or unchecked. Its many working pieces fit together with precision like a well-oiled machine. The 2015 vintage is characterized by a level of sheer exuberance that also defined the 2004 and 2007 vintages. Yet, it also reveals similar power, directness and linearity that we saw in the 2010 vintage. The 2015 Masseto takes the best of all those past vintages and confines those qualities to this single, spectacular bottle.

This red leads off with exquisite notes of vanilla and toast framing black cherry, blackberry, cedar and iron flavours. Ripe and powerful, yet polished and silky, with dense tannins well-integrated into the structure. The fruit returns in the end, along with a liquorice note. A superb young version, showing fine potential. Merlot. Best from 2021 through 2035.

The 2015 Masseto is simply extraordinary. Soft, silky and seamless, the 2015 possesses remarkable balance and harmony from the very first taste. What surprises me most about the 2015 is how fresh and vibrant the flavors are. Sweet red cherry, pomegranate, mint, and wild flowers are all beautifully lifted in this exquisitely perfumed, gracious Masseto. Despite the warm, drought conditions of the early summer, the 2015 is a wine of mid-weight structure, polish and restraint. In this tasting, it positively dazzles. I can't remember ever tasting a young Masseto with this much pure harmony. Other vintages have been super-impressive upon release. The 2004, 2006, 2010 and 2013 all come to mind. But the 2015 has a level of pure sensuality and allure none of those vintages had when young, with the possible exception of the 2004.
