95 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "Monteraponi follows a Burgundy-adjacent farming philosophy that seeks to carve out distinct identities for strong red and white wines. The top-shelf red from the estate is the organic 2018 Baron'Ugo, a blend of 90% Sangiovese with smaller parts Canaiolo and Colorino for more color and vibrant fruit flavors. This vintage delivers a very clean and polished execution, and there is plenty of freshness, thanks to vineyard positioning at a cool and breezy 560 meters in elevation on limestone alberese soils. The oak is woven in a delicate manner in this wine. Production is 6,600 bottles. This is a little treasure from Tuscany. Drink: 2023-2038. (Feb 2023)"

94 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2018 Baron'Ugo is super-impressive. Rich and yet nuanced, Baron'Ugo captures a striking expression of the estate. Dollops of Canaiolo and Colorino add nuance to the Sangiovese. Those complementary varieties work so well in making Baron'Ugo the most distinctive and evocative wine in this range from Monteraponi. Drink: 2024-2038. (Jul 2022)"

92-93 points James Suckling: "A spicy and balanced red with lots of cherry and black-pepper aromas and flavors. Medium body. Integrated tannins and a fresh finish. (Nov 2019)"
