93 points James Suckling: "A delicious red with super-integrated tannins that are polished and beautiful. Full body, loads of licorice and berry character and a long, long finish. Superb. Better in 2015 when the tannins are softer but so delicious already. Stylish. (12/20/13)"

92 points Ian D'Agata (International Wine Cellar): "Bright, deep ruby-red. Black cherry, bitter herbs, violet and licorice on the slightly warm nose. Sweet and creamy in the mouth, showing the depth and intensity of fresh red fruits to support its tannins. In fact, this offers outstanding balance for sagrantino, and the alcohol is far less apparent on the palate than on the nose. This rich, savory wine boasts excellent energy and finishes with terrific grip and a strong chocolatey note. Very well done. (Mar 2013)"

91 points Wine Spectator: "Hints of leather, smoky mineral and ground spice underscore the dried cherry and cranberry fruit in this balanced, medium- to full-bodied red, while the fine-grained tannins are supple and lightly grippy. Dried marjoram and balsamic accents linger on the juicy and aromatic finish. Drink now through 2028. (8/31/15)"
