Reviews
Wine Spectator - April 7, 2025 "Round, supple and layered with strawberry, cherry, eucalyptus and mineral flavors, this red tightens up on the finish. Nonetheless, this remains juicy and lively, and the long aftertaste adds notes of sweet spices. Best from 2027 through 2043."
James Suckling - July 24, 2025 "Nutty aromas dominate, with smoky wood, red and black cherries and dried violets. Full-bodied with very good concentration and weight, velvety tannins, crisp acidity, smoky flavors and a long aftertaste. Drink or hold."
Vinous - November 1, 2023 "Grilled herbs and crushed rocks combine with dried black cherries and dusty earth as the 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva comes to life in the glass. It opens with a balanced inner sweetness offset by a black tea concentration and tart red berry fruits underscored by saline minerals and brisk acidity. It finishes spicy and with medium length, leaving well-formed tannins and a lingering licorice tinge."
