Hailing from the prestigious Bolgheri area, this Super Tuscan is a testament to the region's ability to produce world-class single-variety wines with a distinct, elegant Italian stamp. The name itself is a historical reference to the wheat harvest, signifying the importance of the land and its yield.<\/p>\n<h2>Sommelier's Tasting Notes<\/h2>\n<p>This is a wine of immense depth, marrying power with grace. Messorio is often cited as one of Italy's best Merlots, delivering a thrilling combination of new-world fruit and old-world structure.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Colour:<\/strong> Inky, deep ruby with violet glints.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Aroma:<\/strong> Rich and complex, displaying layers of black plum, damson, sweet spice, cardamom, and toasted oak. Subtle notes of new leather and dried herbs emerge on aeration.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Palate:<\/strong> Full and generous, the mouthfeel is both concentrated and supple. Fine-grained tannins provide a tight, layered structure, leading to a long, savoury finish with a compelling minerality and notes of baker's chocolate and tobacco leaf.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Service:<\/strong> Highly recommend decanting for at least two hours before serving at cellar temperature (18\u00b0C).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Food Pairing &amp; Enjoyment<\/h2>\n<p>Perfect for a celebratory occasion or a luxurious Sunday dinner.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Pairings:<\/strong> Classic Sunday Roast Lamb with Rosemary and Garlic, Beef Wellington, or Mature Pecorino Toscano cheese.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>IGT Toscana 2021<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/winetorres.com\/en\/?s=Le%20Macchiole&#038;post_type=product\">Find other wines from this producer.<\/a><br \/>More information: <a href=\"https:\/\/lemacchiole.it\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">visit the official website.<\/a><\/p>\n\n    <div class=\"xs_social_share_widget xs_share_url after_content \t\tmain_content  wslu-style-1 wslu-share-box-shaped wslu-fill-colored wslu-none wslu-share-horizontal wslu-theme-font-no wslu-main_content\">\n\n\t\t\n        <ul>\n\t\t\t        <\/ul>\n    <\/div> \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Le Messorio est le fleuron du domaine Le Macchiole, un Merlot monoc\u00e9page de Bolgheri, Toscane.
