5/1/2024 - Harley1199 wrote: NRTwenty Years On Wines, Some Luxury at Home; 4/19/2024-5/9/2024 (Alicante y Madrid - España): By the glass. From Castellina area. Maybe just a couple of steps below that Capaninno but twice as much in price. Blend of Sangiovese, colorino and Trebbiano. Modern and misunderstood. |

10/24/2022 - TPB wrote: 91 pointsI think this is a fantastic and very drinkable sangiovese from a vineyard literally about 900 feet from the river dividing the brunellos from just a "rosso" just outside Montalcino. Great body, nose with rose petals and some tar. Still great acidity and mellowing tannins. |

9/27/2022 - wineracquet Likes this wine: 91 pointsThis bottle showed very well. Almost no air needed. Dried dark fruit, good balance of tannins and acidity. nice long dry finish. A perfect match with grilled steak. Wish I had more! Somewhat of an unsung hero of the fantastic 2006 vintage. |

2/8/2020 - cuffthis Likes this wine: 92 pointsLight garnet in color, this wine (70% Sangiovese/15% Merlot/15% Cabernet Sauvignon) reveals focused aromas of bitter cherry, forest floor and anise on the nose. The mouth feel is medium bodied with more cherry, strawberry, sage and subtle mushroom undertones. The finish is longer in length and the red fruits, spices and moderate acidity are wonderfully balanced. 13% abv. |

9/3/2018 - dalemosier Likes this wine: 91 pointsUnfortunately my last bottle. full bodied, nice lingering taste, rich nose. I think this bottle was as good as any of my 2006 purchases - I don't know why the average drink dates are 2011 - 2015 |

7/21/2018 - Francophile Likes this wine: 89 pointsThis wine is surely at the end of its window, the red is slightly brown, but it is still a nice wine, very smooth and a reasonable body that would suit any number of dishes or on its own. I would drink up though it is very near its desired time. |

6/19/2018 - dalemosier Likes this wine: 90 pointsMy last bottle was 2013 when I commented it needed much more time. I let more time go by than I planned, but I was very pleased with my wait. Nice full-bodied well balanced wine. Didn't lose anything drinking the 2nd day. I think it is at its peak now, but no hurry. |

11/27/2015 - PaulusLoZebra Likes this wine: 88 pointsBlood color, garnet with black core; huge, wild nose upon opening, typical cabernet fragrance, nice sawdust and dark red fruits, oak coming through but in balance; cedar, good acidity, medium length. A bit disappointing after 30 minutes; nice, medium-big Bordeaux style SuperTuscan that seemed upon opening like a great wine, but which retreated to being a merely good one. |
