Messorio 1999 Le Macchiole

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (98)

The 1999 is one of the more focused, intense Messorios in this lineup. It shows the minerality and drive of the cooler vintage in its clean, beautifully delineated aromas and flavors. Espresso, grilled herbs and mint are some of the nuances that linger on the finish. The 1999 continues to change in the glass, offering a preview of what is in store for readers lucky enough to own it. This is an absolutely joyous wine to follow in the glass.

Concentrated Merlot. Dark in color, with intense aromas of berries, minerals, blackberries and currants. Full-bodied and very refined, with silky tannins and a long, long finish. Chewy wine.
