95 points James Suckling: "Aromas of cooked apple, lemon and crushed stones with some aniseed and licorice. Full-bodied and tight with a powerful structure and mouth feel and a bitter lemon and aniseed finish. Unique. Drink or hold. (11/24/20)"
94 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "[$36 list] The Vie di Romans 2018 Friuli Isonzo Chardonnay Ciampagnis is beautifully contoured with aromas of peach, melon, honey and passion fruit. The bouquet is perfumed and bright, driving a long finish and silky consistency. Like most of the other whites in this portfolio, it ages on the lees (for nine months, in this case). Instead of oak, it completes this process in stainless steel for an anaerobic environment that serves to capture those direct and linear aromas. The wine concludes with a hint of dusty mineral or crushed stone that ties it to one of the most prominent characteristics of Friuli Venezia Giulia. Drink: 2021-2028. (Feb 2021)"
