The 2021 Il Guercio is 100% Sangiovese from Lamole. Vinification and aging in cement yielded an especially stark but expressive wine that is so distinctive. Crushed flowers, spice, lavender, mint and orange peel are all beautifully lifted. A touch of stems adds aromatic breadth, but they aren’t especially evident. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, July 2024)
