Atomwine frigiver Messorio 2005 i næste uge. Jeg har bestilt et par flasker selvom det formentlig er en lidt vanskelig årgang. Men hvis man ikke køber 2005 så får man ikke lov til at købe 2006éren som altid konservative Antonio Galloni smider 98 RP efter.
"The 2006 Messorio (Merlot) is off the charts. This extraordinary wine possesses a breathtaking combination of super-ripe fruit that has been achieved with remarkable freshness, vibrancy and clarity. There is superb transparency to the wine’s fruit, along with a sublime finish that lasts forever. Ideally a few years of cellaring are called for but readers will have a hard time exercising such patience. This profound Messorio from proprietor Cinzia Merli and oenologist Luca d’Attoma left me speechless. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2026."
05´eren: (93 RP)
"Initially somewhat restrained, the 2005 Messorio opens up with time in the glass, showing an array of dark fruit, plums, licorice and truffles, with sweet, silky-textured tannins. Even though this is a somewhat slender Messorio in relative terms, it has all the qualities of first-class Merlot. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2017. "
Messorio 1997 er stadig det bedste merlot jeg nogensinde har smagt. Desværre umulig at finde.
