JANCIS ROBINSON – MASSAL 1945 CARMÉNÊRE 2015 – WINE OF THE WEEK

 

It may seem a bit perverse not to choose a French wine on Bastille Day, but at least the grape is French, even if it is much more widely planted in Chile than in France today. I was surprised by the sweet and inviting fruit in this wine, it has a subtle tomato note that characterizes many Carmenère, but this one differs from its peers in having a high degree of integrity. I really appreciated its freshness and its roundness. Thanks to its soft and assertive tannins, it will be able to continue evolving for another four years.

ROBERT PARKER´S – WINE ADVOCATE

 

Massal 1945 Cabernet Sauvignon 2015 – 91 pts.

 

The nose is quite elegant and nuanced, with good maturity, without excess, and with integrated aromas of oak. The palate is balanced, medium-bodied and with classic tannins of the variety.

 

Massal 1945 Carménère 2015 – 90 points.

 

I found some faint notes of tempera paint, pen ink, mixed with the herbaceous aromas typical of the variety. The palate has powdery tannins, and a savory finish.
