Robert Parker Wine Advocate:

Messorio is a wine that beautifully reflects the characteristics of the vintage and is a very accurate measuring stick of how any single vintage will eventually perform both in terms of near-term accessibility and long-term cellar aging. That said, the Le Macchiole 2017 Messorio plays its strongest cards in terms of mouthfeel and texture, revealing a robust structure and firmly integrated tannins that come from both the richly concentrated fruit and the careful use of oak. The wine shows a heavy center of gravity and a solid base of dark fruit that is enhanced by caramel, brown sugar, spice and creamy blackberry preserves. It does offer immediate appeal, but I'd wait a few more years to give this 2017 Messorio more time to flesh out and evolve. Drink Date 2022-2040. Rating 95/100. –Monica Larner–

Vinous:

The 2017 Messorio (100% Merlot) is classy and polished to the core. It is also incredibly young and not at all forthcoming. Messorio is a wine that needs a surprising amount of time in bottle to truly shine. I expect that will be the case here as well. Today, the 2017 is all about fruit and density. Time in the cellar should allow for its aromatics to emerge more fully. Overall, though, this is a fairly restrained style, in keeping with the showing of 2017 Bolgheri reds more broadly. All the elements come together so gracefully in this striking wine. Production is down around 20%. Drink Date 2025-2037. Rating 95+/100. –Antonio Galloni–

James Suckling:

This wine shows beautiful clarity and class on the nose with roses, tar, currants, green and black olives and plums. It’s exceptionally fine-tannined with such polish and finesse. So sophisticated and intense for this vintage. Long, chewy finish, yet this is mouth-filling and caressing. Pure merlot. Try after 2024. Rating 97/100. –JamesSuckling.com–

falstaff.com:

Dichtes Rubinviolett. Sehr intensive Nase mit satter Note nach Brom- und Heidelbeere, dahinter nach Rauch und Zimt. Rund und satt in Ansatz und Verlauf, öffnet sich mit viel feinmaschigem Tannin, geschmeidig, im Finale fester Druck. Bewertung 96/100. –falstaff.com, Othmar Kiem & Simon Staffler–
