Robert Parker Wine Advocate:
Cinzia Merli tells me that this vintage was not as hot as initially portrayed. In fact, she says harvest came earlier in 2012 following the summer heat (compared to 2011). The 2011 Messorio is the result of a slightly later growing season that was extended thanks to some cooling rains in June and July. This is a smooth and balanced wine that does not show any of the jammy or overtly sweet notes you get with Merlot in parts of central Tuscany. The bouquet is redolent of cherry, leather, tobacco and plum. There are lingering mineral notes that add definition and focus. Again, this wine shows an excellent quality of tannins with long-lasting softness, silkiness and textural finesse. Drink Date 2017-2038. Rating 94+/100. -Monica Larner-
Vinous:
The 2011 Messorio takes hold of all the senses and never lets up. Rich and explosive to the core, the 2011 boasts stunning intensity and depth. Today, the 2011 is painfully young and packed with tannin. Even with all of its size, the 2011 retains gorgeous aromatic complexity and tons of nuance. This is a fabulous showing from Le Macchiole. Drink Date 2019-2031. Rating 96/100. -Antonio Galloni-
Winespectator:
Rich, ripe and dense, sporting black cherry and leather flavors and hints of tar and tobacco leaf. Powerful and well-structured, with a long, tobacco- and mineral-inflected finish. Merlot. Rating 94/100. -BS-
Jancis Robinson:
100% Merlot. Clearly very ripe vintage, with some jamminess and dried character to the black-cherry and plum fruit. Coffee, vanilla and cedar oak expression. Plush palate, with some black-tea maturity showing through, then mouth-coating tannins grip the palate. Long, espresso finish shows there's some class here, even in a ripe vintage. Not necessarily my style, but there's a lot of class and care that has been put into this wine. Drink Date 2018-2033. Rating 17.5/20. -Tim Jackson-
