95 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "Wines from Marisa Cuomo enjoy cult status in Italy, and it's easy to see why. The 2015 Costa d'Amalfi Furore Riserva, for example, is an exuberant and rich blend of Piedirosso and Aglianico that reveals deep inner power, although the wine never feels too rich or heavy. The key is that acidity that has remained intact even in a hot vintage like this. Cliff-hanging vineyards on the Amalfi Coast benefit from sea breezes and steep diurnal temperature shifts. I found this vintage to be especially delicious with a very rich and opulent level of blackberry fruit followed by integrated spice and Mediterranean herb. You definitely taste that salinity from the beachfront exposure of the vines. Softer tones of chocolate and tobacco fill in the back. This is the best vintage of Furore I have tasted. Some 5,800 bottles were produced. Drink: 2019-2035. (Oct 2019)"
