Castelprile
Prile, Maremma Toscana DOC – 2015

Vinous
92 Points

The 2015 Prile is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese and Merlot. It is also one of the finer wines I have tasted from Volpaia's Prelius estate. Dark and beautifully resonant on the palate, the 2015 opens up nicely with a bit of time in the glass, revealing hints of black cherry, chocolate, licorice and espresso. Drink it over the next decade.

Cabernet Sauvignon, Maremma Toscana DOC – 2018

Wine Enthusiast

Made with organically grown grapes, this Cabernet Sauvignon opens with inviting aromas of cassis, underbrush and mint. The savory, polished palate features black currant, licorice and tobacco alongside fine-grained tannins. Drink through 2026.

Blueberry and currant character with a hint of vanilla. Medium to full body. Chewy tannins and a flavorful finish. Needs time to soften. Better after 2020.

"The blackcurrant fruit is so vivid it leaps out of the glass at you, but there’s also a hint of tobacco. Ripe and succulent with a creamy mid-palate and some nice, supple tannins at the long, moderately dry finish. From organically grown grapes."

"With its full, oaky nose and essence-like, sweet fruit, this warm and generous red has plenty of healthy tannins but finishes slightly sweet. With slightly less ripeness this would rate even higher. Drink now."

“A full and rich red with fruit and depth. Plenty of new wood can be seen at this stage but it is going to come together nicely. Give it two or three years to soften. Made from organic grapes.”

"Showing more herbal than fruit flavors, this dill- and cedar-tinged red takes a linear track, with dustry tannins on the finish. Cherry and berry notes lend a supporting role."

Vermentino, Maremma Toscana DOC – 2013

Floral aromas merge with hints of racy citrus, pineapple and mineral characters. On the palate, this is a refreshing, elegant wine that retains a balanced acidity. The mouthfeel bursts with fresh fruit that lingers on the finish.

"Tart apple flavors brighten this briny vermentino. It has the floral scent of fresh creamery butter, but doesn't feel oily. A zesty white for scallops and gingery leeks."

"Many of the great places in the world for steak happen to be wine-region-adjacent. In Tuscany, that might be a Chianti, or a deeper, darker cabernet sauvignon from the coast -- Prelius, Castello di Volpaia's Maremma winery, makes a terrific example for $16."

"Prelius is Castello di Volpaia's estate in Maremma, where the Stianti Mascheroni family farms…organically to produce this wine. Its spicy scent of cedar and herbs is intriguing; its flavors of tart cherries and cherry tomatoes are simple and clean.”
