July 10, 2021 - Unknown % blend of Sangiovese and Cab Sauv. Medium ruby. Light red cherry aromas. Dark fruit forward palate, with hints of oak/mocha. Dry, medium tannin and acid. Full body and bit high on the alcohol. Good daily drinker that will not get better with age. Drink now.

May 1, 2020 - A solid easy drinking house red. Light ruby in color, pleasant aromatics of cherry leather and spice, and soft tannins and fruity profile.

June 21, 2019 - Visiting Rome and Tuscany; 6/18/2019-7/2/2019 (Lazio and Tuscany, Italy): Banfi's 2018 Col di Sasso is an unspecified blend of Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon, fermented and aged in stainless steel. Medium ruby in color, it delivers a package of spicy red cherries, blue flowers and orange zest. Freshly acidic, seamlessly alcoholic (13%) and with soft tannins, it retains good presence in the middle and closes with an earthy, medium-length finish. This is a pleasant, fruity red that should be at its best over the next 2-3 years. Drink now-2022.
