• Weinwisser bewertete Masseto 2020 wie folgt: "Der großartige Masseto 2020 besteht aus 85 % Merlot und 15 % Cabernet Franc mit 15 Vol.- %, ausgebaut in 100 % neuen Barriques. Nach dem ersten Jahr separierten Ausbaus der einzelnen Partien wurde der Blend erstellt, der danach ein weiteres Jahr im Holz reifte. Dunkle, transparente Farbe. Generös gereift, schokoladig süß und tiefgründig, präsentiert sich die komplexe, finessenreiche Nase mit feinem Holz darin. Ganz dicht und schmelzig, zeigt er sich auf der Zunge extrem fein und balanciert, mit groß angelegter, weit gefasster Struktur. Dabei trägt er viel Energie und Lebendigkeit in sich, seine dichten, schmelzigen Gerbstoffe sind sehr feinkörnig und klar arrangiert. Ein toller, kerniger Masseto mit viel Fleisch und Fülle, sehr stimmig, perfekt balanciert und lang. Dabei bleibt er immer frisch, mit außergewöhnlicher Präsenz und großartiger Tiefe, die er auch dem Cabernet Franc zu verdanken hat. Nobler Schliff, beeindruckende Perfektion." - 20/20 Punkte
• Decanter bewertete Masseto 2020 wie folgt: "Intense and full on the nose, fragrant with ripe black fruit, floral aspects and soft spicing. Round and full on the palate, it's rich and muscular yet tight and neatly coiled with a liquorice, graphite, pepper, cinnamon and clove tang that gives this immediate but enjoyable spice. Feels well worked, juicy with high acidity that lifts the palate and gives freshness and brightness alongside really quite mouthwatering strawberry and raspberry fruit with such captivating dried floral and bitter orange rind aspects. Tannins are super fine and so well integrated yet this maintains a grip and hold from the very beginning through to a long and sustained finish. Nuanced and complex, still packing a punch in terms of power, but this feels sophisticated, suave, purposeful and controlled. Not elegant, this is more of a caged animal with it's full potential yet to be unveiled, but it is classy. A truly delicious wine with so much purity and sense of place. Malolactic fermentation in 100% new barroques, with each batch kept separate for the first 12 months of ageing before being blended and returned to barriques for another year, totalling 24 months. The wine was then aged for a further 12 months in bottle before being released. Winemaker Gaia Cinnirella."- 100 Punkte
• Colin Hay bewertete Masseto 2020 wie folgt: "A wine that you somehow expect to disappoint but that simply never does – here perhaps more than ever... For this is a wine of aromatic and sensual intensity but also of great calm, composure, grace and eloquence. It is subtle just as much as it is explosive. And it is also holding quite a lot back at this early stage. There is already great complexity here – a little subtle vanilla of hint, which is there in the empty glass too; graphite; a touch of spice and a little pepper; there’s blood orange too and a wondrous, again subtle, violet floral note from the Cabernet Franc. On the palate, this is rich and broad – Masseto is to Tuscany what Petrus is to Pomerol. But it is also hyper-fresh and so soft and caressing, with the most sublime, ultra-fine grained tannins. There’s plenty of grip, but a very slow and calm evolution over the palate – no fireworks here. Above all this is a wine of such wonderous potential with so much more to come; all in harmony and elegance. On the finish this is still chewy with tender tannins and exceptionally long – and a lovely rise to the top of the palate producing a vertical plume. So very pure and so very precise." - 100 Punkte
• Antonio Galloni bewertete (08/2023) Masseto 2020 wie folgt: "The 2020 Masseto is superb. Bright and vibrant in the glass, the 2020 offers up an exciting mix of dark-toned fruit, mocha, spice, leather, tobacco, cedar and a kiss of French oak. Lively acids and Franc aromatics lend vibrancy throughout. The Franc is so evident today. This is exceptionally polished and sophisticated, albeit a touch slender relative to most years. In 2020, Masseto is more finesse than power."- 98 Punkte
