Critics reviews

Monica Larner 97/100

11,000 bottles were released.

The stunning Le Macchiole 2019 Messorio is all Merlot from a special 2.5-hectare plot with a classic mix of Bolgheri soils featuring clay, silt, sandstone and limestone—the wine ferments in concrete and finishes in new barrique for 18 months. I spoke with proprietor Cinzia Merli about Merlot, and she concedes that this early-ripening grape suffers the most because of climate change. However, the winemaking team works extra hard to achieve balance and elegance: this beautiful wine releases cherry, blue flower, iris root, crushed stone and slate perfumes. Well-balanced oak tones add power and texture to the full-bodied close.

Drink 2025 - 2048
