stony and impeccably well-balanced finale

The 2008s show a work in progress as Conterno only had control of the vineyard for a few months that year

This too is a knock-out and a one that should evolve glacially over a 20 to 30-year period as it’s even a bit firmer than the Chambertin

There is ample structure here as well though it’s largely buffered by all of the mid-palate extract and I particularly like the depth

sunny weather during the summer and into the harvest

Massa, Chianti Classico Giorgio Primo Size:6x750ml stony and impeccably well-balanced finaleThis is a truly sumptuous wine that stands as a tall testament to the winemaking talents of Giampaolo Motta, his vision for interpreting this vintage and his specific vineyard site in Panzano in Chianti. This standout wine brings Fattoria la Massa to a new level of accomplishment and opens an exciting new chapter of possibility. The 2013 Giorgio Primo (50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot) is dark and impenetrable on first impact.
