Verbiage“A lean, chewy red highlighted by leather, camphor, cherry and iron aromas and flavors. Borders on racy, with vivid acidity working in tandem with the tannins. Best from 2024 through 2037. 2,000 cases made, 200 cases imported.” – B.S., Wine Spectator, Sept 2022 |

Private: Montaperto Chianti Classico DOCG Gran Selezione | 2017 | Wine Spectator | 30/09/2022 | 93 | |||||||
Verbiage“This red starts out fleshy, with ample cherry, strawberry, floral and mineral flavors, picking up underbrush and tobacco accents as this cruises to a lingering aftertaste. A solid grip of tannins girds the finish. Best from 2024 through 2040. 500 cases made, 200 cases imported.” – B.S., Wine Spectator, Sept 2022 |

Marcarini | Barolo La Serra DOCG | 2018 | Wine Enthusiast | 01/09/2022 | 92 | ||||||
Verbiage“Floral aromas of rose and violet waft out of the glass along with whiffs of dark spice and menthol. Linear and elegant, the taut, medium-bodied palate offers red cherry, crushed raspberry and star anise alongside bright acidity. Tightly wound, fine-grained tannins leave a somewhat drying finish. Drink 2025–2030. – Kerin O’Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, Sept 2022 |

Verbiage“Aromas of eucalyptus oil and rose mingle with forest floor and red berry. It’s linear and polished, showing cherry soaked in spirits, raspberry compote and licorice alongside taut, fine-grained tannins. Drink 2023–2028.” – Kerin O’Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, Sept 2022 |
