Very good. At this moment in time not much difference between this and the 2020 Tignanello that we drank next to it. Same style. This one being much more open and less backbone, the Tignanello needs more time with more to come. — 2 years ago

A lot of funky mushroom umami of both nose and mouth, sherry characteristics, fruit compote! Fantastic but very near end of life. Birth year wines are getting harder to come by! — 5 years ago

Very drinkable and representative of the area, but overpriced for an entry level BdM. The Poggio alle Mura (reviewed separately) is a better value proposition. — 9 years ago

Tough not to like. Plenty of crunchy fruit and firm tannins. Classic Sangiovese — 7 years ago

2007 vintage, from our trip over there in 2013! A nice bottle to enjoy today with a little pasta and gravy 😊 Mikey! Nice nose on the open, a little lighter in color, bur tasting plenty yummy! Should only get better as it opens up. — 9 years ago

Actually a blend of Sauvignon Blanc (53%), Vermentino (37%), Viognier (7%) and Semmillon (3%). Light golden color. Aromas of orchard fruit, citrus and smoky chalk dust. Flavors of white peach, apricot, yellow and green apple, tangerine and fresh herbs. Touch of mint on the long and crisp finish. Bright acidity, medium body and sharp focus. Outstanding complexity and dimension. Interesting, unusual and brilliant Italian white! Thank you so much for sharing, Petey! — a month ago

The more I drink this the more I like it. The name is what caught my eye. I love stories of the Knights Templar. This is light bodied, notes of blackberry and plum with slight tannins. — 5 years ago

Very solid baby Super Tuscan. Lots of fruit, a fair bit of oak, but good balance and life. A great value that's perfect for everyday drinking... — 10 years ago
