"The 2018 Giorgio Primo represents a new level of finesse at La Massa. Powerful and dense in the glass with tremendous structure, Giorgio Primo is a terrific example of how compelling international varieties are in Panzano's Conca d'Oro district. Creme de Cassis, spice, new leather, chocolate, and sweet spice build into the textured palate-staining finish." Antonio Galloni Vinous Media 97 points Drink 2023-43

The Fattoria La Massa 2018 Giorgio Primo is a wine of richness, volume and texture. The blend is 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot, and maceration times last 26 to 28 days to add the lovely depth and creaminess you taste here. Black fruit, crushed stone, truffle essence and toasted spice emerge from the bouquet. The wine's full-bodied structure and its freshness promise a long cellar-aging future.
