92 point Raffaele Vecchione (WinesCritic.com): "Precise and essential in the sensory profile, it shows notes of cherries, raspberries, currants, lemon peel and ginger. Medium body, tannins of excellent workmanship and a composed and essential finish of sure composed brilliance. Drink now. (Jun 2024)"
91 points James Suckling: "Ripe cherries and strawberries with hints of chocolate nibs and spices on the nose. Dried flowers, too. Medium-bodied with tense, juicy acidity and dusty tannins. Smooth and textured. From organically grown grapes. Drink now or hold. (6/21/24)"
90 points Michaela Morris (Decanter): "This modestly sized, 11-hectare estate is located in the upper slopes of eastern Castellina abutting the township of Radda. Produced since 1998, the flagship annata bottling ages partially in 500-litre French oak barrels, with the remainder in concrete. It comes progressively into focus with hints of mint and vanilla framing brambly berries. The palate boasts purity and juiciness, with a buoyant core of fleshy red cherry. A sophisticated, powdery texture holds everything in place, and there's a kick of rooibos tea on the finish. Drinking Window: 2024-2028. (Feb 2024)"
90 points Bruce Sanderson (Wine Spectator): "[$28 list] Packed with juicy cherry and raspberry flavors, this spirited, supple red offers accents of iron and underbrush before firming up nicely on the lingering finish. Drink now through 2030. (10/15/24)"
