"This shows notes of cocoa-dusted cherries and toasted spices, crushed walnuts, leather and bark. Medium- to full-bodied with layers of finely polished tannins and a silky texture. Vivid acidity adds energy to the crunchy red-fruited palate. Firm and structured, with a lingering finish. Drink or hold." —James Suckling

"Made with 85% Sangiovese, 10% Merlot and 5% Colorino, this opens with intense aromas of violet, black-skinned berry and leather. The elegantly structured palate offers ripe Marasca cherry, star anise and tobacco alongside fine-grained tannins." —Wine Enthusiast
