96 points James Suckling: "This shows plenty of crunchy and fresh red fruit mixed with dried Mediterranean herbs, orange peel and hibiscus. Some smoky, dusty earth undertones, too. Medium-bodied. So steady and persistent on the palate with crunchy acidity and a chalky, mineral backbone. Steady and long finish. Drink or hold. (Nov 2023)"
94 points Decanter: "Unusually for this estate, Piano delle Colombe is 100% Nerello Mascalese, from vines over 80 years old growing in a small plot within San Lorenzo. Fermented in small open vats and matured for 18 months in one 500l oak tonneau and one used barrique, it's balsamic and earthy with some ripe red and black berry scents. Juicy, intense and spicy, its subtly grippy tannins cradle tangy brambly berries, pomegranate and a fresh herbal finish. Drinking window 2024-2045 (May 2023)"
