95 points Ian D'Agata Wine Review: "Good medium purple-red. Knockout nose offers wild red and dark berries, minerals, violets, white pepper and truffley underbrush. Very suave on entry, then rich, boasting suave ripe red cherry and dark plum flavours complemented by strong brown spice undertones. The wine's impressive volume is nicely buffered by plenty of fresh cut. Closes very long, with serious but fine tannins. Another very sophisticated Montepulciano wine like practically nobody in the world can do. Drinking window: 2028-2045. (Mar 2025)"

95.8 points CellarTracker.com community score.

Bastianich & Lynch (Vino Italiano): "The reclusive Edoardo Valentini has developed a reputation as one of the most uncompromising artisans in the world of Italian wine. He has elevated wines generally known as simple quaffers (Montepulciano/Trebbiano d'Abruzzo into cult classics that sell out quickly when he gets around to releasing them... The Montepulciano d'Abruzzo is as plump and fruity as any from the region while also boasting an earthy, smoky complexity."
