95 Points | International Wine Cellar , July/August 2011

Bright, dark red.  Knockout perfume of black cherry, black raspberry, minerals, violet, rose petal and a whiff of dark chocolate.  Silky on entry, then almost painfully intense in the middle, with terrific backbone and acidity to the classy fruit, mineral and dark chocolate flavors. This boasts fruit of steel, and great clarity.  Finishes with a compelling savory quality, a spine of noble tannins and outstanding subtle persistence.

The trademark of wines from Tuscany, and especially those from the region of Chianti, was once the fiasco. This straw-colored flask may carry associations of lengthy rustic meals out on the portico of a villa in the Tuscan countryside, but this romantic reverie must be interrupted with a burst of reality...
