Winemaker Notes

Masseria Maìme is ruby red in color. The nose presents fruity notes of sour cherries and raspberries together with pleasant hints of roses, violets and slightly spicy impressions of licorice and coffee on the finish. Entry on the palate is soft and is sustained by elegant tannins and a well-balanced finish.

Professional ratings

  • 92ptsJames Suckling
    A full-bodied, chocolaty and tasty red showing ripe plums, cinnamon, nutmeg, chocolate and cherries on the nose. It’s plush and ripe, with velvety tannins and lingering sweet-spice notes at the end.
  • 90ptsVinous
    The 2022 Negroamaro Masseria Maìme opens with an air of chalk dust, violet candies and mint-infused blackberries. This is cool-toned and lifted in feel with a slight bitter tinge up front. Sleek wild berry fruits flow across a stream of fresh acidity. The 2022 finishes dry with a licorice twang, leaving crunchy tannins and a mouthwatering sensation that calls the taster back to the glass for more.
  • 90ptsWine Spectator
    Fresh and balanced, with crisp, fine tannins and a well-spiced mix of ripe damson plum and mulled cherry notes, plus hints of dried thyme, blood orange peel and stone. Drink now through 2029.
