"Vivid dark ruby color, with aromas of blueberry jelly, earth, black truffles, toasted pepper and chocolate. Velvety on the palate, with juicy acidity, a full body and very good fruit concentration. Great complexity and polish in the finish. Drink or hold." —James Suckling

"The 2019 Taurasi Radici is impossible to ignore, mixing cloves with incense, crushed stones and dried black cherries. This is saturating and intense, with a silken textural wave that ushers in masses of tart wild berry fruits and spices, all carried by a stream of vibrant acidity. It finishes long and youthfully tense, with a mineral tinge that lingers along with notes of black licorice and a sour cranberry crunch. In 2019, the Taurasi Radici is back to form." —Vinous

"There's a sense of poise to this well-integrated red, which marries rich cherry coulis and sweet tobacco flavors. Offers mineral, mocha and anise hints, plus a core of dense, fine-grained tannins. Plush and well-spiced on the lively, lingering finish. Best from 2027 through 2039. 6,250 cases made, 1,500 cases imported." —Wine Spectator
