95 points James Suckling: "A wine with dried violets, burnt blackberry essence, charcoal, treacle, resin and baking spices. Full body, very chewy tannins and a long, very decadent finish. Best in a long time. It needs time though. Drink in 2023. (9/11/18)"
93 points Wine Spectator: "The core of black cherry, blackberry, black currant and violet flavors is shaded by vanilla and toasty oak notes. Balanced and refined, with a light layer of dusty tannins on the finish. Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. Drink now through 2028. 2,200 cases made, 300 cases imported. (12/31/19)"
92 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "The 2015 Sant'Antimo Nearco is a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. Some 25,000 bottles were made. This is a near term and approachable Tuscan red to pair with grilled Italian sausages with onions and green bell peppers. The wine offers loads of succulent softness with medium to full-bodied structure to hold it all together. I'm not sure which grape plays a dominant role, but to my palate I taste the Cabernet Sauvignon with the greatest clarity. Dark fruit is followed by grilled rosemary and scorched earth. The warm vintage is nicely expressed here. This is a good value. Drink: 2019-2025. (Jan 2019)"
