91 Points | International Wine Cellar , August 2012

Purple-tinged ruby-red.  Primary aromas of cassis, ripe black cherry, licorice and ink, with a welcome violet note adding freshness; much darker and riper than the Le Difese.  Smooth, dense and full, with impressively concentrated dark fruit flavors lifted by harmonious acidity.  Finishes with a trace of heat and a repeating blackberry note.  Another very serious Guidalberto, though this strikes me as being a good deal riper and bigger than some more perfumed, refined versions of years past.  Still, insiders know that this is a sure-bet restaurant choice as it's usually as good as, but much less expensive than, some of the Tuscan Coast's big names.
