"An intriguing, balanced nose with ripe red fruit (wild strawberry, sweet red cherry and raspberry jam) topped by a subtle savoury note. The firm acidity gives it a lovely fresh lift. The tannins are soft, perfectly weaved into the fruit core. A very appealing wine, with balance and softness but also a poised structure. Notes of dry wood and prune add an interesting rustic touch."

“Ripe and polished, with a bold wave of creamed plum, boysenberry and açaí berry fruit rolling through, backed by mocha and Black Forest cake notes on the broad finish. This should have fans for its hedonism.”

"A muscular red that combines juniper, sandalwood and tomato leaf aromas with cherry, strawberry, iron and tar, while burly tannins set the stage for a long, heady finish. Beauty and the beast wrapped in one"

“Released after the 2017 vintage, because it was decided that this dense, concentrated vintage would benefit from more time in the bottle, the 2016 is fuller and broader in the shoulders compared to the 2017 Amarone. There's more of everything – body, concentration, tannic presence, richness, spiciness...And while there's a reductive note of petrichor, its aromatics still soar, carrying wafts of wild black fruits and balsam out of the glass. Enticing already, its future looks very bright indeed.”

“A medium gold hue as well as terrific orange blossom, stone fruit, and honeyed flower-like aromas and flavors. It's medium-bodied, has a layered, textured mouthfeel, nicely integrated acidity, and a crisp, mineral-laced style on the finish. It's a terrific white.”

“One of the deeper hued, richer, more structured and serious wines in the vintage, it has an absolutely gorgeous perfume of blackberries, sappy garrigue, spring flowers, graphite, and crushed stone. Has a great mid-palate, clean, vibrant acidity, ripe tannins, and a great finish.”

“The herbaceous, succulent nose is like a pie cooling on the sill of a forest cabin, as eucalyptus, mint and fennel mingle with dark chocolate and black cherry, above an immediate saltiness. Black cherry highlights the palate, with bitter, medicinal undertones. Substantial acidity balances the dusty, clingy tannins.”

“Though it was a very dry year, this vintage still managed to keep its impressive elegance. The wine opens with enticing aromas of wild cherry, fresh and dried roses, incense, wild herbs and savory spice. The palate is an example of thoughtfulness and craft with a core of deep wild berries, black tea, and crushed stones that are all supported by supple tannins and lifted acidity.”

“Orchard-fresh Fuji apples and Asian pear aromas lift from the glass immediately as the cork is pulled, followed by subtle white flowers, ginger and crushed stone notes. The palate is electric and vibrant with a subtle hint of nectarine giving way to a saline and mineral note with a creamy perlage and a long finish.”

"An enticing red, with aromas of clove, cardamom, crushed pine and dried tea rose drawing you into the glass, where the fragrant thread winds through a silky mesh of plumped cherry, dried strawberry and minerally earth and iron notes. Graceful and harmonious, showing fine, sculpted tannins and a long, fresh finish. Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio."

"This graceful white is long and svelte, effortlessly meshing well-honed acidity and a minerally streak of brine and petrol with aromas and flavors of baked peach and apricot, creamed almond, crushed pine and fennel seed, preserved lemon and chamomile. The profile expands on the palate and through the long, creamy finish."

"Rich, with toasted hazelnut and spice accents of nutmeg and cardamom to the baked apple, white peach and touches of lemon meringue. Despite the robust, intense flavors, this has a sense of restraint to the crisp thread of acidity and sleek frame."
