97 points James Suckling: "This rich, fruity wine shows huge complexity. Aromas of plums, black cherries, fresh violets and licorice with touches of leather and graphite. Full-bodied, it displays a well-tamed structure, with firm tannins coated in fruit and chewy acidity that keeps the finish fresh and in balance. From organically grown grapes. Try from 2027. (5/8/25)"
96 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "Another icon from Tuscany is the Fontodi 2022 Flaccianello della Pieve. This organic wine is beautiful, quite bold and thickly extracted. Across the board, these wines from the 2022 vintage made by Fontodi all show high alcohol and a rather robust character, and the same goes for the Flaccianello, whose alcohol content is 15%. This vintage is more accessible overall, with finely tuned tannins. This wine represents a selection of the best estate fruit at various elevations with both alberese limestone soils and galestro shale. Drink: 2026-2045. (10/30/25)"
96 points Wine Spectator: "[$225 list] This silky smooth red exudes finesse and harmony, along with cherry, blackberry, black currant, violet and toasty oak flavors. Picks up earth and mineral elements while building to the long, expansive aftertaste. All of the components are in the right place. Sangiovese. Best from 2027 through 2045. (10/31/25)"
96 points Falstaff Guide: "Rich, powerful ruby with a dark core. Open and appealing aromas, with rich notes of black cherries, blackberries and blood oranges, background hints of black olive tapenade. Full-bodied on the palate, with a firm grip, plenty of drive, notes of cedar and graphite, somewhat coarse on the finish. (10/14/25)"
