Description

Wine Spectator – 94 points
Supple and vibrant, yet concentrated, featuring black cherry, blackberry, violet, mineral and tobacco aromas and flavors. Firmly structured and balanced, with a terrific finish that melds all the components and leaves a chalky sensation. Sangiovese and Merlot. Best from 2024

James Suckling – 92 points
Very fresh for a 2017, with lots of black-cherry and violet character. Some tar, too. Medium-to full-bodied with chewy tannins and a polished finish. From organically grown grapes. Needs a year or two to soften.
