“Carla 6” Sangiovese di Toscana IGT 2018

Tenuta La Massa | Tuscany
Tenuta La Massa | Via Case Sparse 9 | IT 50022 Panzano in Chianti

Full of character and profound, the Sangiovese shows its feminine side with sweet and soft contours of cherry and blackberry. Enormously complex and perfectly balanced in flavour, velvety, fruity and with precisely proportioned tannins, infinitely long. SUPERIORE.DE

"Sparkling ruby colour with a slight garnet sheen. Very intense and inviting nose, full of ripe wild raspberries and dark cherries, slightly smoky-mineral components in the background. Very dense on the palate, dark berry fruit, then unfortunately shows quite rough and coarse tannins in the back, earthy notes in the final." Falstaff

"The Carla 6 2018, the estate's best Sangiovese, is superb. Like all La Massa wines, it is deep, fleshy and very expressive. Juicy dark cherry, cedar wood, tobacco and spices can be found in this beautifully structured wine. The Carla 6 skilfully combines power with transparency." Vinous

"The Carla 6 2018 from Fattoria La Massa is 100% Sangiovese and comes from a 1.5-hectare vineyard planted in 1999 on slate and clay soils. This vintage shows a fleshy side with more fruit weight and concentration. The wine feels broad and rich on the palate, finishing with dark fruits, tobacco, crushed stone and even a hint of capers or green olives." Wine Advocate

"This red offers fruity, floral flavors signaled by aromas of ripe raspberry, cassis and violet, with earth, lavender and wild herb details. Elegant and silky, with firm tannins lurking beneath." Wine Spectator

"A very fine, pure Sangiovese from Super Tuscany with notes of gravel, blueberries, blackberries and black cherries. This wine has a real terroir character with balanced, intense and fine tannins and a long finish." James Suckling
