Reminds me a lot of Garnacha Blanca. Banana, apricot and yogurt on the nose. On the palate it retains a lot of stone fruit flavors. Flavorful finish. #biancoditorgiano #torgiano — 4 years ago

Fresh sage and eucalyptus in a glass! Deep ruby with garnet rim. Blackberry, black cherry, forest floor, mushroom, black licorice, black peppercorn, black olives, balsamic oil, sanguine, and chalkiness. High acidity with high chalky tannins, 15% abv, full body. Long savory/sanguine finish. — 5 years ago
Heavy tannic and acidic, more spice/herb dominated style - reminds me more of aglianico than sangiovese. May seem unround now but has potential for decades! — 7 years ago
Jan 2024: somewhat plain and hollow, not as good as vintage 2018, also corresponds with JS 93 (2018) vs JS 87 (2020) - that was a year from now, Jan 2025, improved a lot, raised up to 8.9 — 2 years ago

The 2020 Rubesco, 90% Sangiovese and 10% Colorino, is darkly floral with spiced black cherries, red plums, dusty rose and balsamic spice. Depths of ripe red and blue fruits swirl beneath an air of violet inner florals, taking on an iron-borne minerality toward the round, pliant close. $20.00 (Eric Guido, Vinous, October 2024) — a year ago
