    July 8, 2023 - Mycket polerad, nästan i överkant – men snygg. Här finns lite körsbär och skogsgolv och fortfarande visst pling i syrorna. Men vi kanske skulle klämt den här för fem år sedan.

    January 5, 2018 - Easy drinking, light and round, the acidity keeps it lively. Solid Sangiovese, at a good QPR.

  • finovino3 Likes this wine: 91 points

    February 21, 2015 - Aged sangiovese at its best. Tannins and fruits blended and harmonious. Black sweet cherries and leather dominate. Medium finish and little bricking at edge, will be good thru 2017 at least. Should have splurged on two cases.

  • ScottGoodwin Likes this wine:

    October 8, 2014 - Cherry, pepper, leather, mint/menthol. Nose is still pretty exuberant. Rim starting to show some bricking. Putting out quite a bit of flavor for a smaller frame.

  • Patrik H Likes this wine: 90 points

    June 12, 2014 - On the nose, Dark red berries, dust, bitter, earth cellar, cinnamon
    On the palate, Nice balance with tannins that makes them self noticed. starting up with morello cherries and a hint of cellar and is rounded of with cherries.
    Medium finish
    A very good Toscana wine that will live for some more years to come.
