Masseto 1996 (Magnum, 1.5 l)

Tasting notes

Wine Spectator - "Dense ruby color; meaty and chocolaty ,with berry aromas. Full-bodied, with soft tannins and a long, caressing finish, it shows loads of character. It's just starting to come around now. Not as impressive as I expected but excellent.--Masseto non-blind vertical. Drink now. 2,915 cases made."
