95 points James Suckling: "This is very dense and structured with stone and blackberry character. Full-bodied and intense with chewy tannins that frame the wine. Flavorful finish. Smoky and lightly bitter, in a good way. Pure sangiovese. This needs time to soften. Better after 2024. (10/1/21)"
94 points Falstaff Guide: "Rich ruby-purple. Rich and appealing nose, full of plums. Has a lot of fine spice on the palate of dried herbs, sage and curry herb, rounded palate, already amazingly polished tannins, a lot of plums again on the finish. (9/9/22)"
93 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2019 Poggio Valente is gorgeous. Bright and vibrant in the glass with terrific energy, the Poggio Valente is a fine example of the style favored here these days. Dark red/purplish fruit, rose petal, spice and orange zest complement a core of Sangiovese fruit. I especially like the vibrancy here. The 2019 is absolutely delicious. That's all there is to it. Drink: 2023-2034. (Jul 2022)"
93 points Wine Spectator: "[$50 list] A red with intensity on a weightless frame, leaving plenty of room for cherry, blackberry, chocolate, nutmeg and white pepper flavors to shine. The tannins are present, yet uplifting rather than obtrusive. Sangiovese. Best from 2023 through 2032. 400 cases imported. (5/11/22)"
