92 points Falstaff Guide: "Bright, light golden yellow. Very fragrant and inviting nose of fresh yellow apple, some peach, lemon balm, some flint in the background. On the palate round and smooth, discreet minerality, rounded mouthfeel, some light honey on the finish. Alcohol 14%. (7/9/21)"
91 points Decanter: "From three hectares of south-facing vines at 350m above sea level, planted on sandy soils, this organic Vernaccia di San Gimignano spends 18 months in concrete on the lees. The result is a weighty, vertical wine with aromas of chalk, lemon, apple and seashell, and herbal, white flower and pear flavours with a hint of peach, allied to saline acidity and creamy texture. Long, fresh and poised. Drinking Window: 2023-2038. (Feb 2023)"
91 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "Il Colombaio di Santa Chiara is an organic vineyard run by the Logi family. Their 2018 Vernaccia di San Gimignano Campo della Pieve is a very satisfying white wine that shows a good balance of acidity, freshness, citrus definition and tropical fruit. Keeping in line with expectations of the Vernaccia grape, the wine is not overtly fruity and it also shows some spice and mineral to keep things interesting. Pair it with a tagliatelle with creamy chanterelle mushrooms. (Nov 2020)"
91 points James Suckling: "Laid-back, cool vernaccia with ripe citrus, herb and mineral character. Medium-to full-bodied with a silky texture and relaxed finish. (Dec 2020)"
