94 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "The headline wine from Rocca di Frassinello is this hearty blend of Sangioveto (Sangiovese), Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. It represents a selection of the best fruit from across the estate. The 2018 Maremma Toscana Rocca di Frassinello is a darkly concentrated expression with dark plum, bitter chocolate, spice, leather and cured tobacco. This is a very concentrated and savory expression that draws out the richness and the textural structure of your textbook Tuscan red. Drink: 2021-2032. (Jan 2021)"

94 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2018 Rocca di Frassinello is a bold, exotic wine. Ripe red cherry, kirsch, cinnamon and rose petal are all kicked up in this flamboyant Maremma red. Plush fruit and silky tannins add to its considerable appeal. Hints of sweet pipe tobacco, cedar and mint appear over time, adding striking inner perfume and sweetness. The 2018 is a decidedly racy Rocca di Frassinello. Drink: 2020-2033. (Jan 2021)"

92 points James Suckling: "A rich, fruity red with plum, chocolate and walnut character. It’s full-bodied with lots of round tannins and a savory finish. This needs time to come together. The new wood is really coming through. Try after 2022. (7/28/20)"
