93 pts. James Suckling:

"Bracing aromas of violets and red cherries enhanced by licorice and truffles. The attack is supple, with weight and a medium body. The structure is balanced, with ripe, velvety tannins and long. refreshing acidity. Drink or hold."

This is an amazing Rosso di Montalcino! Close your eyes and you'll think you're drinking a fine Brunello! So mature and rich, we absolutely love this wine. Drink it with any Italian dish - fancy or everyday - it will compliment your meal beautifully! - Wine Factor
