Holy cow. Just brilliant. Nice plumminess to it along with balanced tannins and acidity. Dark red fruit. Complex as day is long. 2008 — 13 days ago

Delicious, but 26 years later it will still strip the enamel off your teeth. — a month ago

Not convinced by these wines. Over extracted. And made for the folks who love these big wines - the american market.

San Valentino Sangiovese Blend 2017

Like the Pipparello, this is a blend of Sangiovese, Sagrantino and Montepulciano. Unlike the Pipparello, this one sees no oak.
The savory nose is full of cherries, earth, and herbal spices. Very deep and complex. On the palate the acidity is noticeably higher. Intense and brooding. Powerful dusty tannins.
A wine making tour de force. — 2 months ago

Gotta wait for it, but Sagrantino from Paolo Bea can be great. Best sagrantino I’ve had. Magnum. So happy to be able to share it with appreciators. — 25 days ago
