Drank 2018 vintage June 2021. Peppery, full bodied, nice tannins, stands by itself. — 4 years ago

Drank 2015 vintage in January 2020 with a nice homemade baked mostaccioli. Perfect complement to the meal. Nice and dry as a Sangiovese should be, and smooth, with a good draw. — 5 years ago

Drank 2018 vintage in May ‘21. Notes of cherry and licorice. Opens up nicely with a minimum of decant. Score based versus all wines. If assessing this reasonably priced juice with comparably priced wines, it would deserve a few more ticks. Definitely worth a try, and you may love it as much as I do. — 4 years ago

My favorite grape, a top notch wine. We had a Brunello first, but this blew that one away, and at half the price. Drank 2013 vintage on 7/4/20 — 5 years ago

All I can say is excellent. I did not rate it near the time I drank it. Had it for my retirement party with homemade Lasagna in January 2020. — 6 years ago

2010 vintage on Dec 25, 2020. Left in open bottle for 3 hours, and decanted for 1 hour. Opened up gorgeously, so smooth. Wish I had more! — 6 years ago
