92 points/'Best Buy,' Wine Enthusiast: "Forward and giving from the start, this wine opens with aromas of ripe black cherries and blackberries with layers of spice both sweet and savory. The mouthfilling palate is generous with loads of fruit but balanced with more savory and earth-driven notes followed by well-grained tannins. Drink now–2035. Alcohol 14%. (Dec 2023)"
92 points Falstaff Guide: "Rich ruby red colour with purple highlights. On the nose complex fruit, cherries and blackberries and a touch of rose hips. On the palate some marzipan, juicy, refreshing acidity, tight tannins, subtly ethereal finish, a hint of mint. (10/16/23)"
92 points Ian D'Agata (Terroir Sense): "Deep ruby-red. Fresh red fruit aromas and flavours are complicated by tar, licorice and shoepolish nuances. Very clean, lively and long on the peppery finish nicely framed by a rising but noble tannic core. Drinking window: 2024-2033. (3/29/24)"
91 points James Suckling: "Notes of ripe cherries and raspberries with red licorice and dried flower undertones. Medium-bodied with crunchy tannins and a chalky, mineral nature. Dry yet juicy with a savory finish. Drink or hold. (11/7/23)"
90 points Eric Guido (Vinous): "The 2021 Montefalco Rosso opens with a sweetly scented bouquet of dusty roses, violets and wild strawberries. It's silky-smooth with a balancing bitter tinge and ripe red and blue fruits swirling throughout. This finishes fresh and lightly structured, leaving hints of citrus and sour cherry to fade slowly. Drink: 2024-2028. (Oct 2023)"
