A Barolo without the wait! Drinks very well off the shelf with zingy cherry, dust-covered leather, and an inoffensive amount of anise. Strong value — 21 hours ago

After hearing of Arnaldo’s passing today, we decided to have a bottle of the 25th anniversary bottle. This is really a great wine for such a difficult grape…a masterpiece. Dark ruby red with aromas of dark cherry, blueberry, plum, tobacco, and stew fruits. On the bud, it luscious and smooth. The tannins are present, but just right. The finish is long. Cherry, licorice, and stewed fruit flavor. — 9 months ago

Vintage 2023 | Juicy and very quaffable grechetto. Each time I taste this brings me back to a visit to Arnaldo Capraï in Umbria. It is a emotion wine to me. Paired with a schnitzel. — 2 years ago

Small production, 151 cases, aged 11 months in French oak, 35% new. Met winemaker David Rossi who makes small batches by buying fruit from top vineyards and using a shared winery for crafting his small batch wines. Deep Ruby with a full range of berry aromas with wafts of earthy notes. On the palate blackberry & ripe cherry with oak and subtle spice. Fine tannins, lingering ending with fruit and some dusty spice. Nice now but let’s see if it aged well. I’ll grab a bottle and put it aside. Check back! — 8 years ago

Ook enkele uren na opening en decanteren een mondvol tannines. Een 8,9. Na 2 dagen begon de wijn uit deze magnum toch wel erg goed te smaken (9,2) en op dag 3 dacht ik: top druif die Sagrantino, goed voor 9,5 punten! — 9 months ago

Loved this wine. So much to unpack - firm tannins, plush textures, wide range of scents on the bouquet. Really fun wine and incredibly well made. Like a mix between Masseto and a not too sweet Valpo or Amarone — 7 years ago

Other commenters may not have prepared themselves for the sheer tannic power of sagrantino, even with only 15% in this blend. Pours a deep brick red veering toward brown, showing significant aging. But ready to drink, probably at its peak. Still, needs time to breathe. Strong saddle leather and horsetail (the plant) aromas backed by roasted game and a bouquet of spices that reminds me of a chocolate-heavy mole. — 3 months ago

9.0

Blend of primarily Sangiovese (70%) along with equal parts Sagrantino (15%) and Merlot (15%). Medium ruby color with purple highlights and a garnet rim. Aromas of black fruits, dark chocolate, violets, leather, forest floor and dried herbs. Black cherry, cassis and pomegranate flavors with additional hints of tobacco, black licorice and wet soil. Medium earthy/spicy finish and a grainy texture. Some grip and power but nicely balanced. Pleasant rustic quality. Solid value. — a year ago

Frog’s Leap. “Hilltop” Rossi Vineyard Cabernet blend. Nose of dirt, currants, anise, plums, just slightest hint of violets. Palate is plums, currants, herbs, a bit of cocoa, some tobacco, pepper, and subtle tannins. Will be interesting to see how this ages since it’s so enjoyable with an hour of air now. — 6 years ago
