AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The 2012 Masseto is seductive from the first sip.
The 2011 edition of this wine was very successful, and not too different in character from this wine.
What the 2012 vintage offers instead is a level of textural richness and creaminess that is absolutely outstanding. The very nature of the fruit feels velvety and silky smooth, without a single ripple. The bouquet reveals upfront aromas of dark cherry and spice that are contrasted perfectly against one another.
Classic vintages of Masseto offers lots more exuberant richness instead. Some 32,000 bottles were produced. The wine should hold forward for many, many years.
