Eric Guido (Vinous) 91 points “The 2020 rosso di montalcino is dusty and floral in character, as crushed stone, dried roses, lavender and nuances of wild blueberry form its bouquet. It caresses the palate with the finesse, silky yet lifted, while delivering ripe red and blue fruits with lovely mineral underpinnings. Inner violet flowers and pretty hints of blackberry linger long through the lighlty structered and drawn-out finale. There’s simply so much to like about this charming 2020 Rosso.”

James Suckling 91 points “Lots of spiced plums, potpourri, fresh strawberries and herbs on the nose, followed by a similar echoing of fruit on the palate with a floral lift. Succulent, racy and tight.”

Walter Speller (JancisRobinson.com) 17/20 “Mid crimson. A concentrated, perfumed cherry nose with hints of oak. Concentrated fruit palate with good acidity. The perfectly suave, polished tannins are especially successful. (WS) 14.5%
