Outstanding. Brought to a winemaker tasting at Lincoln Fine Wines with Lorenzo hosting. The tasting was for the 20,21, and 22 Rossos, plus the 18, 19, and 13 Riserva. Everyone got to taste the 13 normale I brought, and it was a huge hit. Lorenzo explained that '13 is his favorite year because that was year his daughter born, so worked extra hard to make it special and last forever for her. Also said he prefers the 13 to the 10. The difference was subtle, with a slight nod to the Riserva, which he said needs even more time But the normal is amazing now and he said would be for the next 20 years. So there it is, from the source. Buy More!!

These wines are delicious now but seem to me will be better with another 5-10 years. So we wait. Really big fan of this producer, although hard to source. Still give Fuligni an edge for my palate.

Pnp. Much better showing of this BdM than a few years back. Very elegant and more on the red fruit side with some earthy notes and wood spices. I still don’t see anything close to 100 points here but could see this still adding a point or two with more time in bottle. 92-93 for now

Solid fruit, cherry and raisins. Huge and compact, really a blockbuster. Solid tannins, young.

In very good state for drinking. Velvet but still with acidity
