La Massa 2021 La Massa IGT 750ml

Showing excellent balance, the Tenuta La Massa 2021 La Massa is a wine of volume and intensity, but nothing about it is overdone. You get a pretty display of dark fruit and spice. The wine flaunts its hourglass figure with some points of baroque opulence and other points of muscular firmness. The blend is 50% Sangiovese, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% Merlot, Alicante Bouschet and Petit Verdot. Fermentation is in steel vats, and the wine matures in barrique and tonneaux for 12 months, with 20% new oak. Tenuta La Massa draws fruit from over 20 hectares of vines in beautiful Panzano in Chianti, and 120,000 bottles were created.
