Reviews
James Suckling 97
This is very structured, with superbly polished tannins that are fine but just slightly austere in the very best way. Blackberry, blueberry, violet and oyster shell aromas. Medium- to full-bodied, solid and driving in the finish, with forest flower, oyster shell and tapenade undertones. Needs three or four years to come together.

The 2021 Terra di Lavoro is intense yet youthfully backward, smoldering up with a complex array of dried violets, ashen stone, sage, cedar chips and blackberries, lifted by hints of camphor. It's silky-smooth, nearly seamless in feel, with surprising lift and a savory core of red and black fruits that penetrate deeply, staining the palate in primary concentration. A bump of brisk acidity maintains freshness, yet the end result is one of tannic structure and tension. Depths of bitter berry fruit and licorice tones leave a cheek-puckering sensation. The 2021 is a powerful and dense Terra di Lavoro that will pay dividends in the cellar. This is a beast. Bury it deep.
