The 2010 Langhe Dolcetto Masante is a big wine imbued with violets, tar, licorice and dark varietal fruit. It shows fabulous richness and intensity. I don’t taste the Masante often enough. The 2010 is certainly impressive. It is a bit of a bruiser, but there is no shortage of personality. A deep, muscular finish rounds things out in style. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2016.
