BUY THE WINE

Nicolas Belfrage | Very attractive mid-depth color, bright and inviting. Sweet floral and red-berry fruit notes on the nose. Juicy fruit that fills the mouth, acid a bit too pronounced but should keep it well. Has the character to last. | 92

Bruno Besa | Pale garnet to tawny. Slightly closed yet refined and elegant small red fruits nose, with tobacco, cedar wood, cranberries, fresh rosemary, and crushed stones. Medium body, complex, layered small-red-fruit palate, with super-refined tannins and a weightless finish. My style of Sangiovese. | 95

Andrew Jefford | A lighter red in the run: deep garnet-cherry. Apple and cow-byre scents. Relatively simple on the palate, with apple fruit, moderate concentration and structure, and a fresh acid balance. | 81
