Reviews

James Suckling 91

Aromas of dried flowers with black cherries and light stems. Medium to full body, firm tannins and a savory finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

Vinous Media 90

The 2020 Rosso di Montalcino is dark and smoky, with musky red currants, dried strawberries and grilled herbs forming its seductive bouquet. It's a soft-textured yet juicy and energetic in feel, with masses of fleshy, ripe red fruits that find a pleasant balance through its core of brisk acidity. This finishes long and slightly balsamic with a staining of sweet spice that lingers. The 2020 Terre Nere is almost too easy to like.
