"Overt and ripe style to this wine. Fresh roses, black cherries and raspberries, together with macerated violets. The attack is firm yet balanced, with ripe, velvety tannins that turn chalkier in texture on the finish, fresh acidity and medium to full body. Despite the warmth at the end, it's youthful and good. Best after 2025."

"Mid ruby. Savoury and minerally, liquorice nose with subdued, shy fruit hints. Subdued fruit on the palate yet with a brooding richness suggesting a delayed harvest. Well balanced, if a little heady. (WS)"

"The 2020 Brunello di Montalcino is smoky, with an array of crushed rocks, dusty earth and savory herbs giving way to black cherries. It sweeps across the palate with juicy red and black fruits accelerated by a core of acidity. With a spicy tinge toward the finish, the 2020 tapers off dry and long with a tactile mineral grip and hints of underripe plum."
