90 Points | International Wine Cellar , March/April 2011
Bright dark ruby-red. Highly perfumed nose offers intense notes of red cherry, bay leaf, oregano and mint. Then dense, rich and smooth on the palate, with chewy, musky flavors of red cherries, dried herbs and minty cocoa. The long finish displays a soil-driven personality. Very good wine from a small, family-run estate; the'07 Faro was great too. (Jan D'Amore Wines Ltd., Brooklyn, NY
